* Switching deprecated Thread Local Storage (TLS) usage in Python 3.7 to Thread Specific Storage (TSS)
* Changing Python version from 3.6 to 3.7 for Travis CI, to match brew's version of Python 3
* Introducing PYBIND11_ macros to switch between TLS and TSS API
It is useful not only to remember the python libs and includes but
also the interpreter version in cache.
If users call pybind11 throught `add_subdirectories` they will
otherwise have no access to the selected interpreter version.
The interpreter version is useful for downstream projects, e.g.
to select default `lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages/` install paths.
If an exception is thrown during module initialization, the
error_already_set destructor will try to call `get_internals()` *after*
setting Python's error indicator, resulting in a `SystemError: ...
returned with an error set`.
Fix that by temporarily stashing away the error indicator in the
destructor.
As reported in #1349, clang before 3.5 can segfault on a function-local
variable referenced inside a lambda. This moves the function-local
static into a separate function that the lambda can invoke to avoid the
issue.
Fixes#1349
This fixes the test code on big-endian architectures: the array support
(PR #832) had hard-coded the little-endian '<' but we need to use '>' on
big-endian architectures.
Current MSVC generates totally bizarre errors:
error C2884: 'pybind11::detail::_': introduced by using-declaration
conflicts with local function 'pybind11::detail::_'
which makes no sense (since the supposed "conflict" is the function
itself). Work around it by `using namespace detail;` instead (which
also lets us drop a bunch of other `detail::` qualifications, so isn't
actually a bad thing).
This updates the `py::init` constructors to only use brace
initialization for aggregate initiailization if there is no constructor
with the given arguments.
This, in particular, fixes the regression in #1247 where the presence of
a `std::initializer_list<T>` constructor started being invoked for
constructor invocations in 2.2 even when there was a specific
constructor of the desired type.
The added test case demonstrates: without this change, it fails to
compile because the `.def(py::init<std::vector<int>>())` constructor
tries to invoke the `T(std::initializer_list<std::vector<int>>)`
constructor rather than the `T(std::vector<int>)` constructor.
By only using `new T{...}`-style construction when a `T(...)`
constructor doesn't exist, we should bypass this by while still allowing
`py::init<...>` to be used for aggregate type initialization (since such
types, by definition, don't have a user-declared constructor).
This fixes#1251 (patient vector grows without bounds) for the 2.2.2
branch by checking that the vector doesn't already have the given
patient.
This is a little less elegant than the same fix for `master` (which
changes the patients `vector` to an `unordered_set`), but that requires
an internals layout change, which this approach avoids.
* Fix segfault when reloading interpreter with external modules
When embedding the interpreter and loading external modules in that
embedded interpreter, the external module correctly shares its
internals_ptr with the one in the embedded interpreter. When the
interpreter is shut down, however, only the `internals_ptr` local to
the embedded code is actually reset to nullptr: the external module
remains set.
The result is that loading an external pybind11 module, letting the
interpreter go through a finalize/initialize, then attempting to use
something in the external module fails because this external module is
still trying to use the old (destroyed) internals. This causes
undefined behaviour (typically a segfault).
This commit fixes it by adding a level of indirection in the internals
path, converting the local internals variable to `internals **` instead
of `internals *`. With this change, we can detect a stale internals
pointer and reload the internals pointer (either from a capsule or by
creating a new internals instance).
(No issue number: this was reported on gitter by @henryiii and @aoloe).
The anonymous struct nested in a union triggers a -Wnested-anon-type
warning ("anonymous types declared in an anonymous union are an
extension") under clang (#1204). This names the struct and defines it
out of the definition of `instance` to get around to warning (and makes
the code slightly simpler).
- 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.
When using the mixed position + vararg path, pybind over inc_ref's
the vararg positions. Printing the ref_count() of `item` before
and after this change you see:
Before change:
```
refcount of item before assign 3
refcount of item after assign 5
```
After change
```
refcount of item before assign 3
refcount of item after assign 4
```
The `py::args` or `py::kwargs` arguments aren't properly referenced
when added to the function_call arguments list: their reference counts
drop to zero if the first (non-converting) function call fails, which
means they might be cleaned up before the second pass call runs.
This commit adds a couple of extra `object`s to the `function_call`
where we can stash a reference to them when needed to tie their
lifetime to the function_call object's lifetime.
(Credit to YannickJadoul for catching and proposing a fix in #1223).
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).
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).
Building with the (VS2017) /permissive- flag puts the compiler into
stricter standards-compliant mode. It shouldn't cause the compiler to
work differently--it just disallows some non-conforming code--so should
be perfectly fine for the test suite under all VS2017 builds.
This commit also fixes one failure under non-permissive mode.
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
