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).
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.
* Added template constructors to buffer_info that can deduce the item size, format string, and number of dimensions from the pointer type and the shape container
* Implemented actual buffer_info constructor as private delegate constructor taking rvalue reference as a workaround for the evaluation order move problem on GCC 4.8
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.
Adding or removing tests is a little bit cumbersome currently: the test
needs to be added to CMakeLists.txt, the init function needs to be
predeclared in pybind11_tests.cpp, then called in the plugin
initialization. While this isn't a big deal for tests that are being
committed, it's more of a hassle when working on some new feature or
test code for which I temporarily only care about building and linking
the test being worked on rather than the entire test suite.
This commit changes tests to self-register their initialization by
having each test initialize a local object (which stores the
initialization function in a static variable). This makes changing the
set of tests being build easy: one only needs to add or comment out
test names in tests/CMakeLists.txt.
A couple other minor changes that go along with this:
- test_eigen.cpp is now included in the test list, then removed if eigen
isn't available. This lets you disable the eigen tests by commenting
it out, just like all the other tests, but keeps the build working
without eigen eigen isn't available. (Also, if it's commented out, we
don't even bother looking for and reporting the building with/without
eigen status message).
- pytest is now invoked with all the built test names (with .cpp changed
to .py) so that it doesn't try to run tests that weren't built.
Use simple asserts and pytest's powerful introspection to make testing
simpler. This merges the old .py/.ref file pairs into simple .py files
where the expected values are right next to the code being tested.
This commit does not touch the C++ part of the code and replicates the
Python tests exactly like the old .ref-file-based approach.
