Version 1.3.30 (in progress)
============================
09/23/2006: olly
[Ruby] Support building with recent versions of the Ruby 1.9
development branch. Fixes bug #1560092.
09/23/2006: olly
Templates can now be instantiated using negative numbers and
constant expressions, e.g.:
template<int q> class x {};
%template(x_minus1) x<-1>;
%template(x_1plus2) x<1+2>;
Also, constant expressions can now include comparisons (>, <, >=,
<=, !=, ==), modulus (%), and ternary conditionals (a ? b : c).
Fixes bugs #646275, #925555, #956282, #994301.
09/22/2006: wsfulton
Fix %ignore on director methods - Bugs #1546254, #1543533
09/20/2006: wsfulton
Fix %ignore on director constructors
09/20/2006: wsfulton
Fix seg faults and asserts when director methods are ignored (#1543533)
09/20/2006: wsfulton
Fix out of source builds - bug #1544718
09/20/2006: olly
Treat a nested class definition as a forward declaration rather
than ignoring it completely, so that we generate correct code for
passing opaque pointers to the nested class (fixes SF bug #909387).
09/20/2006: olly
*** POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY ***
[php] Overload resolution now works. However to allow this, SWIG
generated wrappers no longer coerce PHP types (which reverts a change
made in 1.3.26). So for example, if a method takes a string, you
can no longer pass a number without explicitly converting it to a
string in PHP using: (string)x
09/18/2006: mgossage
[ALL] fix on swiginit.swg, has been reported to crash on several test cases
found and fixed problem in imports under python (mingw)
09/16/2006: wsfulton
[Python] Patch from Michal Marek for Python 2.5 to fix 64 bit array indexes on
64 bit machines.
09/13/2006: wsfulton
The explicitcall feature has been scrapped. This feature was introduced primarily
to solve recursive director method calls. Director upcall improvements made instead:
[Python, Ruby, Ocaml] The swig_up flag is no longer used. The required mutexes
wrapping this flag are also no longer needed. The recursive calls going from C++
to the target language and back again etc are now avoided by a subtlely different
approach. Instead of using the swig_up flag in each director method to indicate
whether the explicit C++ call to the appropriate base class method or a normal
polymorphic C++ call should be made, the new approach makes one of these calls
directly from the wrapper method.
[Java, C#] The recursive call problem when calling a C++ base class method from
Java/C# is now fixed. The implementation is slightly different to the other languages
as the detection as to whether the explicit call or a normal polymorphic call is made
in the Java/C# layer rather than in the C++ layer.
09/11/2006: mgossage
[ALL] updated swiginit.swg to allow multiple interpreters to use multiple
swig modules at once. This has been tested in Lua (mingw & linux),
perl5 & python (linux) only.
09/11/2006: mgossage
[lua] added support for passing function pointers as well as native lua object
into wrappered function.
Added example funcptr3 to demonstrate this feature
09/05/2006: olly
[php] Rename ErrorCode and ErrorMsg #define-s to SWIG_ErrorCode
and SWIG_ErrorMsg to avoid clashes with code the user might be
wrapping (patch from Darren Warner in SF bug #1466086). Any
user typemaps which use ErrorCode and/or ErrorMsg directly will
need adjusting - you can easily fix them to work with both old
and new SWIG by changing to use SWIG_ErrorMsg and adding:
#ifndef SWIG_ErrorMsg
#define SWIG_ErrorMsg() ErrorMsg()
#endif
08/29/2006: olly
[php] Move constant initialisation from RINIT to MINIT to fix a
warning when using Apache and mod_php. We only need to create
PHP constants once when we're first initialised, not for every HTTP
request.
08/21/2006: mgossage
[Lua]
Bugfix #1542466 added code to allow mapping Lua nil's <-> C/C++ NULL's
updated various typemaps to work correctly with the changes
added voidtest_runme.lua to show the features working
08/19/2006: wuzzeb (John Lenz)
[Guile] Add feature:constasvar to export constants as variables instead of functions
that return the constant value.
08/11/2006: wsfulton
[Java] DetachCurrentThread calls have been added so that natively created threads
no longer prevent the JVM from exiting. Bug reported by Thomas Dudziak and
Paul Noll.
08/10/2006: wsfulton
[C#] Fix director protected methods so they work
07/25/2006: mutandiz
[allegrocl]
more additions to std::string, some tweaks and small bug fixes
-nocwrap mode.
07/21/2006: mgossage
[Lua]
Bugfix #1526022 pdated std::string to support strings with '\0' inside them
updated typemaps.i to add support for pointer to pointers
07/19/2006: mutandiz
[allegrocl]
- Add std_string.i support.
- Add newobject patch submitted by mkoeppe (thanks!)
- Fix type name mismatch issue for nested type definitions.
specifically typedefs in templated class defns.
07/18/2006: mgossage
Bugfix #1522858
updated lua.cxx to support -external-runtime command
07/14/2006: wuzzeb (John Lenz)
Increment the SWIG_RUNTIME_VERSION to 3, because of the
addition of the owndata member in swig_type_info.
Reported by: Prabhu Ramachandran
07/05/2006: wsfulton
Search path fixes:
- Fix search path for library files to behave as documented in Library.html.
- Fix mingw/msys builds which did not find the SWIG library when installed.
- Windows builds also output the mingw/msys install location when running
swig -swiglib.
- The non-existent and undocumented config directory in the search path has
been removed.
07/05/2006: wsfulton
Fix $symname special variable expansion.
07/04/2006: wuzzeb (John Lenz)
[Chicken]
Add %feature("constasvar"), which instead of exporting a constant as a
scheme function, exports the constant as a scheme variable. Update the
documentation as well.
07/04/2006: wsfulton
[See entry of 09/13/2006 - explicitcall feature and documentation to it removed]
New explicitcall feature which generates additional wrappers for virtual methods
that call the method explicitly, not relying on polymorphism to make the method
call. The feature is a feature flag and is enabled like any other feature flag.
It also recognises an attribute, "suffix" for mangling the feature name, see
SWIGPlus.html#SWIGPlus_explicitcall documentation for more details.
[Java, C#]
The explicitcall feature is also a workaround for solving the recursive calls
problem when a director method makes a call to a base class method. See
Java.html#java_directors_explicitcall for updated documentation.
06/28/2006: joe (Joseph Wang)
[r] Initial support for R
06/20/2006: wuzzeb (John Lenz)
[Chicken]
Minor fixes to get apply_strings.i testsuite to pass
Remove integers_runme.scm from the testsuite, because SWIG and Chicken does
handle overflows.
06/17/2006: olly
[php] Added some missing keywords to the PHP4 keyword list, and
fixed __LINE__ and __FILE__ which were in the wrong category.
Also added all the keywords new in PHP5, and added comments
noting the PHP4 keywords which aren't keywords in PHP5.
06/17/2006: olly
[php] Don't segfault if PHP Null is passed as this pointer (e.g.
Class_method(Null)) - give a PHP Error instead.
06/15/2006: mutandiz
[allegrocl]
Add initial support for std::list container class.
Fix a few bugs in helper functions.
05/13/2006: wsfulton
[Java] Replace JNIEXPORT with SWIGEXPORT, thereby enabling the possibility
of using gcc -fvisibility=hidden for potentially smaller faster loading wrappers.
05/13/2006: wsfulton
Fix for Makefiles for autoconf-2.60 beta
05/13/2006: wsfulton
Vladimir Menshakov patch for compiling wrappers with python-2.5 alpha.
05/12/2006: wsfulton
Fix buffer overflow error when using large %feature(docstring) reported
by Joseph Winston.
05/12/2006: wsfulton
[Perl] Operator overload fix from Daniel Moore.
05/25/2006: mutandiz
[allegrocl]
Fix bug in generation of CLOS type declarations for unions
and equivalent types.
05/24/2006: mutandiz
[allegrocl]
Don't require a full class definition to generate a CLOS wrapper.
05/20/2006: olly
[php] GCC Visibility support now works with PHP.
05/19/2006: olly
[php] Removed support for -dlname (use -module instead). Fixed
naming of PHP extension module to be consistent with PHP
conventions (no "php_" prefix on Unix; on PHP >= 4.3.0, handle Unix
platforms which use something other than ".so" as the extension.)
05/13/2006: wsfulton
[C#] Director support added
05/07/2006: olly
[php] Don't segfault if PHP Null is passed where a C++ reference
is wanted.
05/05/2006: olly
[php] Fix wrappers generated for global 'char' variables to not
include a terminating zero byte in the PHP string.
05/03/2006: wsfulton
Modify typemaps so that char * can be applied to unsigned char * or signed char *
types and visa versa.
05/03/2006: efuzzyone
[cffi]Thanks to Luke J Crook for this idea.
- a struct/enum/union is replaced with :pointer only if
that slot is actually a pointer to that type. So,:
struct a_struct { int x; } and
struct b_struct { a_struct struct_1; };
will be converted as:
(cffi:defcstruct b_struct
(struct_1 a_struct))
- Other minor fixes in lispifying names.
05/02/2006: wsfulton
Fix possible redefinition of _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE for VC++.
04/14/2006: efuzzyone
[cffi]
Thanks to Thomas Weidner for the patch.
- when feature export is set (export 'foo) is
generated for every symbol
- when feature inline is set (declaim (inline foo)) is
generated before every function definition
- when feature intern_function is set
#.(value-of-intern-function "name" "nodeType" package)
is emitted instead of the plain symbol. A sample swig-lispify
is provided.
- every symbol is prefixed by it's package.
04/13/2006: efuzzyone
[cffi]
Fixed the generation of wrappers for global variables.
Added the option [no]swig-lisp which turns on/off generation
of code for swig helper lisp macro, functions, etc.
