- UPDATEIFCOPY is deprecated, replaced with similar (but not identical)
WRITEBACKIFCOPY; trying to access the flag causes a deprecation
warning under numpy 1.14, so just check the new flag there.
- Numpy `repr` formatting of floats changed in 1.14.0 to `[1., 2., 3.]`
instead of the pre-1.14 `[ 1., 2., 3.]`. Updated the tests to
check for equality with the `repr(...)` value rather than the
hard-coded (and now version-dependent) string representation.
PEP8 indicates (correctly, IMO) that when an annotation is present, the
signature should include spaces around the equal sign, i.e.
def f(x: int = 1): ...
instead of
def f(x: int=1): ...
(in the latter case the equal appears to bind to the type, not to the
argument).
pybind11 signatures always includes a type annotation so we can always
add the spaces.
In the latest MSVC in C++17 mode including Eigen causes warnings:
warning C4996: 'std::unary_negate<_Fn>': warning STL4008: std::not1(),
std::not2(), std::unary_negate, and std::binary_negate are deprecated in
C++17. They are superseded by std::not_fn(). You can define
_SILENCE_CXX17_NEGATORS_DEPRECATION_WARNING or
_SILENCE_ALL_CXX17_DEPRECATION_WARNINGS to acknowledge that you have
received this warning.
This disables 4996 for the Eigen includes.
Catch generates a similar warning for std::uncaught_exception, so
disable the warning there, too.
In both cases this is temporary; we can (and should) remove the warnings
disabling once new upstream versions of Eigen and Catch are available
that address the warning. (The Catch one, in particular, looks to be
fixed in upstream master, so will probably be fixed in the next (2.0.2)
release).
Pybind11's default conversion to int always produces a long on Python 2 (`int`s and `long`s were unified in Python 3). This patch fixes `int` handling to match Python 2 on Python 2; for short types (`size_t` or smaller), the number will be returned as an `int` if possible, otherwise `long`. Requires Python 2.5+.
This is needed for things like `sys.exit`, which refuse to accept a `long`.
This commit turns on `-Wdeprecated` in the test suite and fixes several
associated deprecation warnings that show up as a result:
- in C++17 `static constexpr` members are implicitly inline; our
redeclaration (needed for C++11/14) is deprecated in C++17.
- various test suite classes have destructors and rely on implicit copy
constructors, but implicit copy constructor definitions when a
user-declared destructor is present was deprecated in C++11.
- Eigen also has various implicit copy constructors, so just disable
`-Wdeprecated` in `eigen.h`.
py::class_<T>'s `def_property` and `def_property_static` can now take a
`nullptr` as the getter to allow a write-only property to be established
(mirroring Python's `property()` built-in when `None` is given for the
getter).
This also updates properties to use the new nullptr constructor internally.
A few fixes related to how we set `__qualname__` and how we show the
type name in function signatures:
- `__qualname__` isn't supposed to have the module name at the
beginning, but we've been putting it there. This removes it, while
keeping the `Nested.Class` name chaining.
- print `__module__.__qualname__` rather than `type->tp_name`; the
latter doesn't work properly for nested classes, so we would get
`module.B` rather than `module.A.B` for a class `B` with parent `A`.
This also unifies the Python 3 and PyPy code. Fixes#1166.
- This now sets a `__qualname__` attribute on the type (as would happen
in Python 3.3+) for Python <3.3, including PyPy. While not particularly
important to have in earlier Python versions, it's useful for us to be
able to extracted the nested name, which is why `__qualname__` was
invented in the first place.
- Added tests for the above.
The just-updated flake8 package hits a bunch of:
E741 ambiguous variable name 'l'
warnings. This commit renames them all from `l` to `lst` (they are all
list values) to avoid the error.
- For the debian/buster docker build (GCC 7/C++17) install and use the
system `catch` package; this also renames "COMPILER_PACKAGES" to
"EXTRA_PACKAGES" since it now contains a non-compiler package.
- Add a status message indicating the catch version being used for
compiling the embedded tests
- Simplify some bash code by using VAR+=" foo" to append (rather than
VAR="${VAR} foo"
- Fix CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH appending: it was prepending the ':' but not
the existing $CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH value and so would end up with
":/eigen-path" if CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH was already set. (This wasn't
bug that was actually noticed since currently nothing else sets it).
This fixes a bug introduced in b68959e822
when passing in a two-dimensional, but conformable, array as the value
for a compile-time Eigen vector (such as VectorXd or RowVectorXd). The
commit switched to using numpy to copy into the eigen data, but this
broke the described case because numpy refuses to broadcast a (N,1)
into a (N).
This commit fixes it by squeezing the input array whenever the output
array is 1-dimensional, which will let the problematic case through.
(This shouldn't squeeze inappropriately as dimension compatibility is
already checked for conformability before getting to the copy code).
This changes the caster to return a reference to a (new) local `CharT`
type caster member so that binding lvalue-reference char arguments
works (currently it results in a compilation failure).
Fixes#1116
This also matches the Eigen example for the row-major case.
This also enhances one of the tests to trigger a failure (and fixes it in the PR). (This isn't really a flaw in pybind itself, but rather fixes wrong code in the test code and docs).
The current C++14 constexpr signatures don't require relaxed constexpr,
but only `auto` return type deduction. To get around this in C++11,
the type caster's `name()` static member functions are turned into
`static constexpr auto` variables.
E.g. trying to convert a `list` to a `std::vector<int>` without
including <pybind11/stl.h> will now raise an error with a note that
suggests checking the headers.
The note is only appended if `std::` is found in the function
signature. This should only be the case when a header is missing.
E.g. when stl.h is included, the signature would contain `List[int]`
instead of `std::vector<int>` while using stl_bind.h would produce
something like `MyVector`. Similarly for `std::map`/`Dict`, `complex`,
`std::function`/`Callable`, etc.
There's a possibility for false positives, but it's pretty low.
To avoid an ODR violation in the test suite while testing
both `stl.h` and `std_bind.h` with `std::vector<bool>`,
the `py::bind_vector<std::vector<bool>>` test is moved to
the secondary module (which does not include `stl.h`).
There are two separate additions:
1. `py::hash(obj)` is equivalent to the Python `hash(obj)`.
2. `.def(hash(py::self))` registers the hash function defined by
`std::hash<T>` as the Python hash function.
The lookup of the `self` type and value pointer are moved out of
template code and into `dispatcher`. This brings down the binary
size of constructors back to the level of the old placement-new
approach. (It also avoids a second lookup for `init_instance`.)
With this implementation, mixing old- and new-style constructors
in the same overload set may result in some runtime overhead for
temporary allocations/deallocations, but this should be fine as
old style constructors are phased out.
Creating an instance of of a pybind11-bound type caused a reference leak in the
associated Python type object, which could prevent these from being collected
upon interpreter shutdown. This commit fixes that issue for all types that are
defined in a scope (e.g. a module). Unscoped anonymous types (e.g. custom
iterator types) always retain a positive reference count to prevent their
collection.
The `latest` build remains as is, but all others are modified to:
* Use regular Python instead of conda. `pip install` is much faster
than conda, but scipy isn't available. Numpy is still tested.
* Compile in debug mode instead of release.
* Skip CMake build tests. For some reason, CMake configuration is very
slow on AppVeyor and these tests are almost entirely CMake.
The changes reduce build time to about 1/3 of the original. The `latest`
config still covers scipy, release mode and the CMake build tests, so
the others don't need to.
The main point of `py::module_local` is to make the C++ -> Python cast
unique so that returning/casting a C++ instance is well-defined.
Unfortunately it also makes loading unique, but this isn't particularly
desirable: when an instance contains `Type` instance there's no reason
it shouldn't be possible to pass that instance to a bound function
taking a `Type` parameter, even if that function is in another module.
This commit solves the issue by allowing foreign module (and global)
type loaders have a chance to load the value if the local module loader
fails. The implementation here does this by storing a module-local
loading function in a capsule in the python type, which we can then call
if the local (and possibly global, if the local type is masking a global
type) version doesn't work.
This reimplements the py::init<...> implementations using the various
functions added to support `py::init(...)`, and moves the implementing
structs into `detail/init.h` from `pybind11.h`. It doesn't simply use a
factory directly, as this is a very common case and implementation
without an extra lambda call is a small but useful optimization.
This, combined with the previous lazy initialization, also avoids
needing placement new for `py::init<...>()` construction: such
construction now occurs via an ordinary `new Type(...)`.
A consequence of this is that it also fixes a potential bug when using
multiple inheritance from Python: it was very easy to write classes
that double-initialize an existing instance which had the potential to
leak for non-pod classes. With the new implementation, an attempt to
call `__init__` on an already-initialized object is now ignored. (This
was already done in the previous commit for factory constructors).
This change exposed a few warnings (fixed here) from deleting a pointer
to a base class with virtual functions but without a virtual destructor.
These look like legitimate warnings that we shouldn't suppress; this
adds virtual destructors to the appropriate classes.
This allows you to use:
cls.def(py::init(&factory_function));
where `factory_function` returns a pointer, holder, or value of the
class type (or a derived type). Various compile-time checks
(static_asserts) are performed to ensure the function is valid, and
various run-time type checks where necessary.
Some other details of this feature:
- The `py::init` name doesn't conflict with the templated no-argument
`py::init<...>()`, but keeps the naming consistent: the existing
templated, no-argument one wraps constructors, the no-template,
function-argument one wraps factory functions.
- If returning a CppClass (whether by value or pointer) when an CppAlias
is required (i.e. python-side inheritance and a declared alias), a
dynamic_cast to the alias is attempted (for the pointer version); if
it fails, or if returned by value, an Alias(Class &&) constructor
is invoked. If this constructor doesn't exist, a runtime error occurs.
- for holder returns when an alias is required, we try a dynamic_cast of
the wrapped pointer to the alias to see if it is already an alias
instance; if it isn't, we raise an error.
- `py::init(class_factory, alias_factory)` is also available that takes
two factories: the first is called when an alias is not needed, the
second when it is.
- Reimplement factory instance clearing. The previous implementation
failed under python-side multiple inheritance: *each* inherited
type's factory init would clear the instance instead of only setting
its own type value. The new implementation here clears just the
relevant value pointer.
- dealloc is updated to explicitly set the leftover value pointer to
nullptr and the `holder_constructed` flag to false so that it can be
used to clear preallocated value without needing to rebuild the
instance internals data.
- Added various tests to test out new allocation/deallocation code.
- With preallocation now done lazily, init factory holders can
completely avoid the extra overhead of needing an extra
allocation/deallocation.
- Updated documentation to make factory constructors the default
advanced constructor style.
- If an `__init__` is called a second time, we have two choices: we can
throw away the first instance, replacing it with the second; or we can
ignore the second call. The latter is slightly easier, so do that.
An alias can be used for two main purposes: to override virtual methods,
and to add some extra data to a class needed for the pybind-wrapper.
Both of these absolutely require that the wrapped class be polymorphic
so that virtual dispatch and destruction, respectively, works.
In C++11 mode, `boost::apply_visitor` requires an explicit `result_type`.
This also adds optional tests for `boost::variant` in C++11/14, if boost
is available. In C++17 mode, `std::variant` is tested instead.
This udpates all the remaining tests to the new test suite code and
comment styles started in #898. For the most part, the test coverage
here is unchanged, with a few minor exceptions as noted below.
- test_constants_and_functions: this adds more overload tests with
overloads with different number of arguments for more comprehensive
overload_cast testing. The test style conversion broke the overload
tests under MSVC 2015, prompting the additional tests while looking
for a workaround.
- test_eigen: this dropped the unused functions `get_cm_corners` and
`get_cm_corners_const`--these same tests were duplicates of the same
things provided (and used) via ReturnTester methods.
- test_opaque_types: this test had a hidden dependence on ExampleMandA
which is now fixed by using the global UserType which suffices for the
relevant test.
- test_methods_and_attributes: this required some additions to UserType
to make it usable as a replacement for the test's previous SimpleType:
UserType gained a value mutator, and the `value` property is not
mutable (it was previously readonly). Some overload tests were also
added to better test overload_cast (as described above).
- test_numpy_array: removed the untemplated mutate_data/mutate_data_t:
the templated versions with an empty parameter pack expand to the same
thing.
- test_stl: this was already mostly in the new style; this just tweaks
things a bit, localizing a class, and adding some missing
`// test_whatever` comments.
- test_virtual_functions: like `test_stl`, this was mostly in the new
test style already, but needed some `// test_whatever` comments.
This commit also moves the inherited virtual example code to the end
of the file, after the main set of tests (since it is less important
than the other tests, and rather length); it also got renamed to
`test_inherited_virtuals` (from `test_inheriting_repeat`) because it
tests both inherited virtual approaches, not just the repeat approach.
