This commit includes modifications that are needed to get pybind11 to work with PyPy. The full test suite compiles and runs except for a last few functions that are commented out (due to problems in PyPy that were reported on the PyPy bugtracker).
Two somewhat intrusive changes were needed to make it possible: two new tags ``py::buffer_protocol()`` and ``py::metaclass()`` must now be specified to the ``class_`` constructor if the class uses the buffer protocol and/or requires a metaclass (e.g. for static properties).
Note that this is only for the PyPy version based on Python 2.7 for now. When the PyPy 3.x has caught up in terms of cpyext compliance, a PyPy 3.x patch will follow.
Current debian testing has Python 2.7.13-RC1, which has a serious
regression (upstream https://bugs.python.org/issue5322) which should be
reverted for RC2 (or the final 2.7.13). Ignore build failures for this
build test temporarily (with the intention of reverting this commit in a
couple of weeks once it stops failing, i.e. when debian testing picks up
an updated python 2.7 release).
This replaces the current `all_of_t<Pred, Ts...>` with `all_of<Ts...>`,
with previous use of `all_of_t<Pred, Ts...>` becoming
`all_of<Pred<Ts>...>` (and similarly for `any_of_t`). It also adds a
`none_of<Ts...>`, a shortcut for `negation<any_of<Ts...>>`.
This allows `all_of` and `any_of` to be used a bit more flexible, e.g.
in cases where several predicates need to be tested for the same type
instead of the same predicate for multiple types.
This commit replaces the implementation with a more efficient version
for non-MSVC. For MSVC, this changes the workaround to use the
built-in, recursive std::conjunction/std::disjunction instead.
This also removes the `count_t` since `any_of_t` and `all_of_t` were the
only things using it.
This commit also rearranges some of the future std imports to use actual
`std` implementations for C++14/17 features when under the appropriate
compiler mode, as we were already doing for a few things (like
index_sequence). Most of these aren't saving much (the implementation
for enable_if_t, for example, is trivial), but I think it makes the
intention of the code instantly clear. It also enables MSVC's native
std::index_sequence support.
Add a build using g++-7 snapshot from debian experimental. This build
is set to allow failures without triggering an overall build failure
(since this is an experimental compiler with experimental support for a
future C++ standard).
When compiling in C++17 mode the noexcept specifier is part of the
function type. This causes a failure in pybind11 because, by omitting
a noexcept specifier when deducing function return and argument types,
we are implicitly making `noexcept(false)` part of the type.
This means that functions with `noexcept` fail to match the function
templates in cpp_function (and other places), and we get compilation
failure (we end up trying to fit it into the lambda function version,
which fails since a function pointer has no `operator()`).
We can, however, deduce the true/false `B` in noexcept(B), so we don't
need to add a whole other set of overloads, but need to deduce the extra
argument when under C++17. That will *not* work under pre-C++17,
however.
This commit adds two macros to fix the problem: under C++17 (with the
appropriate feature macro set) they provide an extra `bool NoExceptions`
template argument and provide the `noexcept(NoExceptions)` deduced
specifier. Under pre-C++17 they expand to nothing.
This is needed to compile pybind11 with gcc7 under -std=c++17.
gcc 7 has both std::experimental::optional and std::optional, but this
breaks the test compilation as we are trying to use the same `opt_int`
type alias for both.
Since the argument loader split off from the tuple converter, it is
never called with a `convert` argument set to anything but true. This
removes the argument entirely, passing a literal `true` from within
`argument_loader` to the individual value casters.
This adds automatic casting when assigning to python types like dict,
list, and attributes. Instead of:
dict["key"] = py::cast(val);
m.attr("foo") = py::cast(true);
list.append(py::cast(42));
you can now simply write:
dict["key"] = val;
m.attr("foo") = true;
list.append(42);
Casts needing extra parameters (e.g. for a non-default rvp) still
require the py::cast() call. set::add() is also supported.
All usage is channeled through a SFINAE implementation which either just returns or casts.
Combined non-converting handle and autocasting template methods via a
helper method that either just returns (handle) or casts (C++ type).
* Added ternary support with descr args
Current the `_<bool>(a, b)` ternary support only works for `char[]` `a`
and `b`; this commit allows it to work for `descr` `a` and `b` arguments
as well.
* Add support for std::valarray to stl.h
This abstracts the std::array into a `array_caster` which can then be
used with either std::array or std::valarray, the main difference being
that std::valarray is resizable. (It also lets the array_caster be
potentially used for other std::array-like interfaces, much as the
list_caster and map_caster currently provide).
* Small stl.h cleanups
- Remove redundant `type` typedefs
- make internal list_caster methods private
Newer standard libraries use compiler intrinsics for std::index_sequence
which makes it ‘free’. This prevents hitting instantiation limits for
recursive templates (-ftemplate-depth).
This is needed in order to allow the tuple caster to accept any sequence
while keeping the argument loader fast. There is also very little overlap
between the two classes which makes the separation clean. It’s also good
practice not to have completely new functionality in a specialization.
Using a complicated declval here was pointlessly complicated: we
already know the type, because that's what cast_op_type<T> is in the
first place. (The declval also broke MSVC).
This adds a `detail::cast_op<T>(caster)` function which handles the
rather verbose:
caster.operator typename CasterType::template cast_op_type<T>()
which allows various places to use the shorter and clearer:
cast_op<T>(caster)
instead of the full verbose cast operator invocation.
stl casters were using a value cast to (Value) or (Key), but that isn't
always appropriate. This changes it to use the appropriate value
converter's cast_op_type.
C++ exceptions are destructed in the context of the code that catches
them. At this point, the Python GIL may not be held, which could lead
to crashes with the previous implementation.
PyErr_Fetch and PyErr_Restore should always occur in pairs, which was
not the case for the previous implementation. To clear the exception,
the new approach uses PyErr_Restore && PyErr_Clear instead of simply
decreasing the reference counts of the exception objects.
* Use LIBDIR and MULTIARCH on linux to find python library
* Remove apple-specific setting; the non-windows one should work fine on OS X
* Default LIBDIR/MULTIARCH to '' (to avoid getting None)
* Remove trailing whitespace from FindPythonLibsNew
A flake8 configuration is included in setup.cfg and the checks are
executed automatically on Travis:
* Ensures a consistent PEP8 code style
* Does basic linting to prevent possible bugs
Fixes#509.
The move policy was already set for rvalues in PR #473, but this only
applied to directly cast user-defined types. The problem is that STL
containers cast values indirectly and the rvalue information is lost.
Therefore the move policy was not set correctly. This commit fixes it.
This also makes an additional adjustment to remove the `copy` policy
exception: rvalues now always use the `move` policy. This is also safe
for copy-only rvalues because the `move` policy has an internal fallback
to copying.
