* Add make_value_iterator
This is the counterpart to make_key_iterator, and will allow
implementing a `value` method in `bind_map` (although doing so is left
for a subsequent PR).
I made a few design changes to reduce copy-and-paste boilerplate.
Previously detail::iterator_state had a boolean template parameter to
indicate whether it was being used for make_iterator or
make_key_iterator. I replaced the boolean with a class that determines
how to dereference the iterator. This allows for a generic
implementation of `__next__`.
I also added the ValueType and Extra... parameters to the iterator_state
template args, because I think it was a bug that they were missing: if
make_iterator is called twice with different values of these, only the
first set has effect (because the state class is only registered once).
There is still a potential issue in that the *values* of the extra
arguments are latched on the first call, but since most policies are
empty classes this should be even less common.
* Add some remove_cv_t to appease clang-tidy
* Make iterator_access and friends take reference
For some reason I'd accidentally made it take a const value, which
caused some issues with third-party packages.
* Another attempt to remove remove_cv_t from iterators
Some of the return types were const (non-reference) types because of the
pecularities of decltype: `decltype((*it).first)` is the *declared* type
of the member of the pair, rather than the type of the expression. So if
the reference type of the iterator is `pair<const int, int> &`, then the
decltype is `const int`. Wrapping an extra set of parentheses to form
`decltype(((*it).first))` would instead give `const int &`.
This means that the existing make_key_iterator actually returns by value
from `__next__`, rather than by reference. Since for mapping types, keys
are always const, this probably hasn't been noticed, but it will affect
make_value_iterator if the Python code tries to mutate the returned
objects. I've changed things to use double parentheses so that
make_iterator, make_key_iterator and make_value_iterator should now all
return the reference type of the iterator. I'll still need to add a test
for that; for now I'm just checking whether I can keep Clang-Tidy happy.
* Add back some NOLINTNEXTLINE to appease Clang-Tidy
This is favoured over using remove_cv_t because in some cases a const
value return type is deliberate (particularly for Eigen).
* Add a unit test for iterator referencing
Ensure that make_iterator, make_key_iterator and make_value_iterator
return references to the container elements, rather than copies. The
test for make_key_iterator fails to compile on master, which gives me
confidence that this branch has fixed it.
* Make the iterator_access etc operator() const
I'm actually a little surprised it compiled at all given that the
operator() is called on a temporary, but I don't claim to fully
understand all the different value types in C++11.
* Attempt to work around compiler bugs
https://godbolt.org/ shows an example where ICC gets the wrong result
for a decltype used as the default for a template argument, and CI also
showed problems with PGI. This is a shot in the dark to see if it fixes
things.
* Make a test constructor explicit (Clang-Tidy)
* Fix unit test on GCC 4.8.5
It seems to require the arguments to the std::pair constructor to be
implicitly convertible to the types in the pair, rather than just
requiring is_constructible.
* Remove DOXYGEN_SHOULD_SKIP_THIS guards
Now that a complex decltype expression has been replaced by a simpler
nested type, I'm hoping Doxygen will be able to build it without issues.
* Add comment to explain iterator_state template params
Support C++20. For backwards compatibility, we provide an alias for the old name.
This change is necessary to easily avoid errors when a compiler thinks
`module` is used as a keyword.
* Wrap PYBIND11_OVERLOAD_NAME and PYBIND11_OVERLOAD_PURE_NAME in do { ... } while (false), and resolve trailing semicolon
* Deprecate PYBIND11_OVERLOAD_* and get_overload in favor of PYBIND11_OVERRIDE_* and get_override
* Correct erroneous usage of 'overload' instead of 'override' in the implementation and internals
* Fix tests to use non-deprecated PYBIND11_OVERRIDE_* macros
* Update docs to use override instead of overload where appropriate, and add warning about deprecated aliases
* Add semicolons to deprecated PYBIND11_OVERLOAD macros to match original behavior
* Remove deprecation of PYBIND11_OVERLOAD_* macros and get_overload
* Add note to changelog and upgrade guide
This commit also adds `doc()` to `object_api` as a shortcut for the
`attr("__doc__")` accessor.
The module macro changes from:
```c++
PYBIND11_PLUGIN(example) {
pybind11::module m("example", "pybind11 example plugin");
m.def("add", [](int a, int b) { return a + b; });
return m.ptr();
}
```
to:
```c++
PYBIND11_MODULE(example, m) {
m.doc() = "pybind11 example plugin";
m.def("add", [](int a, int b) { return a + b; });
}
```
Using the old macro results in a deprecation warning. The warning
actually points to the `pybind11_init` function (since attributes
don't bind to macros), but the message should be quite clear:
"PYBIND11_PLUGIN is deprecated, use PYBIND11_MODULE".
* Make 'any' the default markup role for Sphinx docs
* Automate generation of reference docs with doxygen and breathe
* Improve reference docs coverage
- new pybind11::base<> attribute to indicate a subclass relationship
- unified infrastructure for parsing variadic arguments in class_ and cpp_function
- use 'handle' and 'object' more consistently everywhere
Using object class to hold converted object automatically deallocates
object if an exception is thrown or scope is left before constructing
complete Python object.
Additionally added method object::release() that allows to release
ownership of python object without decreasing its reference count.
