IN DEVELOPMENT
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Changes will be summarized here periodically.
|
|
|
|
Version 2.10.1 (Oct 2?, 2022)
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Allow ``pybind11::capsule`` constructor to take null destructor pointers.
|
|
`#4221 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4221>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``embed.h`` was changed so that ``PYTHONPATH`` is used also with Python 3.11
|
|
(established behavior).
|
|
`#4119 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4119>`_
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Fix MSVC 2019 v.1924 & C++14 mode error for ``overload_cast``.
|
|
`#4188 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4188>`_
|
|
|
|
* Make augmented assignment operators non-const for the object-api. Behavior
|
|
was previously broken for augmented assignment operators.
|
|
`#4065 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4065>`_
|
|
|
|
* Add proper error checking to C++ bindings for Python list append and insert.
|
|
`#4208 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4208>`_
|
|
|
|
* Work-around for Nvidia's CUDA nvcc compiler in versions 11.4.0 - 11.8.0.
|
|
`#4220 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4220>`_
|
|
|
|
* A workaround for PyPy was added in the ``py::error_already_set``
|
|
implementation, related to PR `#1895 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1895>`_
|
|
released with v2.10.0.
|
|
`#4079 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4079>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fixed compiler errors when C++23 ``std::forward_like`` is available.
|
|
`#4136 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4136>`_
|
|
|
|
* Properly raise exceptions in contains methods (like when an object in unhashable).
|
|
`#4209 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4209>`_
|
|
|
|
* Further improve another error in exception handling.
|
|
`#4232 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4232>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``get_local_internals()`` was made compatible with
|
|
``finalize_interpreter()``, fixing potential freezes during interpreter
|
|
finalization.
|
|
`#4192 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4192>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Performance and style:
|
|
|
|
* Reserve space in set and STL map casters if possible. This will prevent
|
|
unnecessary rehashing / resizing by knowing the number of keys ahead of time
|
|
for Python to C++ casting. This improvement will greatly speed up the casting
|
|
of large unordered maps and sets.
|
|
`#4194 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4194>`_
|
|
|
|
* GIL RAII scopes are non-copyable to avoid potential bugs.
|
|
`#4183 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4183>`_
|
|
|
|
* Explicitly default all relevant ctors for pytypes in the ``PYBIND11_OBJECT``
|
|
macros and enforce the clang-tidy checks ``modernize-use-equals-default`` in
|
|
macros as well.
|
|
`#4017 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4017>`_
|
|
|
|
* Optimize iterator advancement in C++ bindings.
|
|
`#4237 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4237>`_
|
|
|
|
* Use the modern ``PyObject_GenericGetDict`` and ``PyObject_GenericSetDict``
|
|
for handling dynamic attribute dictionaries.
|
|
`#4106 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4106>`_
|
|
|
|
* Document that users should use ``PYBIND11_NAMESPACE`` instead of using ``pybind11`` when
|
|
opening namespaces. Using namespace declarations and namespace qualification
|
|
remain the same as ``pybind11``. This is done to ensure consistent symbol
|
|
visibility.
|
|
`#4098 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4098>`_
|
|
|
|
* Mark ``detail::forward_like`` as constexpr.
|
|
`#4147 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4147>`_
|
|
|
|
* Optimize unpacking_collector when processing ``arg_v`` arguments.
|
|
`#4219 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4219>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build system improvements:
|
|
|
|
* Include a pkg-config file when installing pybind11, such as in the Python
|
|
package.
|
|
`#4077 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4077>`_
|
|
|
|
* Avoid stripping debug symbols when ``CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE`` is set to ``DEBUG``
|
|
instead of ``Debug``.
|
|
`#4078 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4078>`_
|
|
|
|
* Followup to `#3948 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3948>`_, fixing vcpkg again.
|
|
`#4123 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4123>`_
|
|
|
|
Version 2.10.0 (Jul 15, 2022)
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Removed support for Python 2.7, Python 3.5, and MSVC 2015. Support for MSVC
|
|
2017 is limited due to availability of CI runners; we highly recommend MSVC
|
|
2019 or 2022 be used. Initial support added for Python 3.11.
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
* ``py::anyset`` & ``py::frozenset`` were added, with copying (cast) to
|
|
``std::set`` (similar to ``set``).
|
|
`#3901 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3901>`_
|
|
|
|
* Support bytearray casting to string.
|
|
`#3707 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3707>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``type_caster<std::monostate>`` was added. ``std::monostate`` is a tag type
|
|
that allows ``std::variant`` to act as an optional, or allows default
|
|
construction of a ``std::variant`` holding a non-default constructible type.
|
|
`#3818 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3818>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11::capsule::set_name`` added to mutate the name of the capsule instance.
|
|
`#3866 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3866>`_
|
|
|
|
* NumPy: dtype constructor from type number added, accessors corresponding to
|
|
Python API ``dtype.num``, ``dtype.byteorder``, ``dtype.flags`` and
|
|
``dtype.alignment`` added.
|
|
`#3868 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3868>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes:
|
|
|
|
* Python 3.6 is now the minimum supported version.
|
|
`#3688 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3688>`_
|
|
`#3719 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3719>`_
|
|
|
|
* The minimum version for MSVC is now 2017.
|
|
`#3722 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3722>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix issues with CPython 3.11 betas and add to supported test matrix.
|
|
`#3923 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3923>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``error_already_set`` is now safer and more performant, especially for
|
|
exceptions with long tracebacks, by delaying computation.
|
|
`#1895 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1895>`_
|
|
|
|
* Improve exception handling in python ``str`` bindings.
|
|
`#3826 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3826>`_
|
|
|
|
* The bindings for capsules now have more consistent exception handling.
|
|
`#3825 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3825>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``PYBIND11_OBJECT_CVT`` and ``PYBIND11_OBJECT_CVT_DEFAULT`` macro can now be
|
|
used to define classes in namespaces other than pybind11.
|
|
`#3797 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3797>`_
|
|
|
|
* Error printing code now uses ``PYBIND11_DETAILED_ERROR_MESSAGES`` instead of
|
|
requiring ``NDEBUG``, allowing use with release builds if desired.
|
|
`#3913 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3913>`_
|
|
|
|
* Implicit conversion of the literal ``0`` to ``pybind11::handle`` is now disabled.
|
|
`#4008 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4008>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Fix exception handling when ``pybind11::weakref()`` fails.
|
|
`#3739 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3739>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``module_::def_submodule`` was missing proper error handling. This is fixed now.
|
|
`#3973 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3973>`_
|
|
|
|
* The behavior or ``error_already_set`` was made safer and the highly opaque
|
|
"Unknown internal error occurred" message was replaced with a more helpful
|
|
message.
|
|
`#3982 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3982>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``error_already_set::what()`` now handles non-normalized exceptions correctly.
|
|
`#3971 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3971>`_
|
|
|
|
* Support older C++ compilers where filesystem is not yet part of the standard
|
|
library and is instead included in ``std::experimental::filesystem``.
|
|
`#3840 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3840>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix ``-Wfree-nonheap-object`` warnings produced by GCC by avoiding returning
|
|
pointers to static objects with ``return_value_policy::take_ownership``.
|
|
`#3946 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3946>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix cast from pytype rvalue to another pytype.
|
|
`#3949 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3949>`_
|
|
|
|
* Ensure proper behavior when garbage collecting classes with dynamic attributes in Python >=3.9.
|
|
`#4051 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4051>`_
|
|
|
|
* A couple long-standing ``PYBIND11_NAMESPACE``
|
|
``__attribute__((visibility("hidden")))`` inconsistencies are now fixed
|
|
(affects only unusual environments).
|
|
`#4043 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4043>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11::detail::get_internals()`` is now resilient to in-flight Python
|
|
exceptions.
|
|
`#3981 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3981>`_
|
|
|
|
* Arrays with a dimension of size 0 are now properly converted to dynamic Eigen
|
|
matrices (more common in NumPy 1.23).
|
|
`#4038 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4038>`_
|
|
|
|
* Avoid catching unrelated errors when importing NumPy.
|
|
`#3974 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3974>`_
|
|
|
|
Performance and style:
|
|
|
|
* Added an accessor overload of ``(object &&key)`` to reference steal the
|
|
object when using python types as keys. This prevents unnecessary reference
|
|
count overhead for attr, dictionary, tuple, and sequence look ups. Added
|
|
additional regression tests. Fixed a performance bug the caused accessor
|
|
assignments to potentially perform unnecessary copies.
|
|
`#3970 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3970>`_
|
|
|
|
* Perfect forward all args of ``make_iterator``.
|
|
`#3980 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3980>`_
|
|
|
|
* Avoid potential bug in pycapsule destructor by adding an ``error_guard`` to
|
|
one of the dtors.
|
|
`#3958 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3958>`_
|
|
|
|
* Optimize dictionary access in ``strip_padding`` for numpy.
|
|
`#3994 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3994>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``stl_bind.h`` bindings now take slice args as a const-ref.
|
|
`#3852 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3852>`_
|
|
|
|
* Made slice constructor more consistent, and improve performance of some
|
|
casters by allowing reference stealing.
|
|
`#3845 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3845>`_
|
|
|
|
* Change numpy dtype from_args method to use const ref.
|
|
`#3878 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3878>`_
|
|
|
|
* Follow rule of three to ensure ``PyErr_Restore`` is called only once.
|
|
`#3872 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3872>`_
|
|
|
|
* Added missing perfect forwarding for ``make_iterator`` functions.
|
|
`#3860 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3860>`_
|
|
|
|
* Optimize c++ to python function casting by using the rvalue caster.
|
|
`#3966 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3966>`_
|
|
|
|
* Optimize Eigen sparse matrix casting by removing unnecessary temporary.
|
|
`#4064 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/4064>`_
|
|
|
|
* Avoid potential implicit copy/assignment constructors causing double free in
|
|
``strdup_gaurd``.
|
|
`#3905 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3905>`_
|
|
|
|
* Enable clang-tidy checks ``misc-definitions-in-headers``,
|
|
``modernize-loop-convert``, and ``modernize-use-nullptr``.
|
|
`#3881 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3881>`_
|
|
`#3988 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3988>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build system improvements:
|
|
|
|
* CMake: Fix file extension on Windows with cp36 and cp37 using FindPython.
|
|
`#3919 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3919>`_
|
|
|
|

|
|
`#3948 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3948>`_
|
|
|
|
* CMake: Fix issue with NVCC on Windows.
|
|
`#3947 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3947>`_
|
|
|
|
* CMake: Drop the bitness check on cross compiles (like targeting WebAssembly
|
|
via Emscripten).
|
|
`#3959 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3959>`_
|
|
|
|
* Add MSVC builds in debug mode to CI.
|
|
`#3784 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3784>`_
|
|
|
|
* MSVC 2022 C++20 coverage was added to GitHub Actions, including Eigen.
|
|
`#3732 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3732>`_,
|
|
`#3741 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3741>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Backend and tidying up:
|
|
|
|
* New theme for the documentation.
|
|
`#3109 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3109>`_

|
|
|
|
* ``#include <iostream>`` was removed from the ``pybind11/stl.h`` header. Your
|
|
project may break if it has a transitive dependency on this include. The fix
|
|
is to "Include What You Use".
|
|
`#3928 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3928>`_
|
|
|
|
* Avoid ``setup.py <command>`` usage in internal tests.

|
|
`#3694 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3694>`_
|
|
|
|

|
|
`#3758 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3758>`_
|
|
|
|
* Some fixes for PyPy 3.9.
|
|
`#3768 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3768>`_
|

|
Build system improvements:
|
|
|
|
* Uses ``sysconfig`` module to determine installation locations on Python >=
|
|
3.10, instead of ``distutils`` which has been deprecated.
|
|
`#3764 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3764>`_
|
|
|
|
* Support Catch 2.13.5+ (supporting GLIBC 2.34+).
|
|
`#3679 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3679>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix test failures with numpy 1.22 by ignoring whitespace when comparing
|
|
``str()`` of dtypes.
|
|
`#3682 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3682>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Backend and tidying up:
|
|
|
|
* clang-tidy: added ``readability-qualified-auto``,
|
|
``readability-braces-around-statements``,
|
|

|
|
`#3709 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3709>`_
|
|
|
|
* clang-format was added to the pre-commit actions, and the entire code base
|
|
automatically reformatted (after several iterations preparing for this leap).
|
|
`#3713 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3713>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Version 2.9.1 (Feb 2, 2022)
|
|
---------------------------
|
|
|
|
Changes:
|
|
|
|
* If possible, attach Python exception with ``py::raise_from`` to ``TypeError``
|
|
when casting from C++ to Python. This will give additional info if Python
|
|
exceptions occur in the caster. Adds a test case of trying to convert a set
|
|
from C++ to Python when the hash function is not defined in Python.
|
|
`#3605 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3605>`_
|
|
|
|
* Add a mapping of C++11 nested exceptions to their Python exception
|
|
equivalent using ``py::raise_from``. This attaches the nested exceptions in
|
|
Python using the ``__cause__`` field.
|
|
`#3608 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3608>`_
|
|
|
|
* Propagate Python exception traceback using ``raise_from`` if a pybind11
|
|
function runs out of overloads.
|
|
`#3671 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3671>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``py::multiple_inheritance`` is now only needed when C++ bases are hidden
|
|
from pybind11.

This is the last version to support Python 2.7 and 3.5.
|
|
|
|
New Features:
|
|
|
|

|
|
`#3521 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3521>`_
|
|
|
|
* Replace ``_`` with ``const_name`` in internals, avoid defining ``pybind::_``
|
|
if ``_`` defined as macro (common gettext usage)
|
|
`#3423 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3423>`_

|
|
`#3479 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3479>`_
|
|
|
|
* CMake: report version type as part of the version string to avoid a spurious
|
|
space in the package status message.
|
|
`#3472 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3472>`_
|
|
|
|
* Flags starting with ``-g`` in ``$CFLAGS`` and ``$CPPFLAGS`` are no longer
|
|
overridden by ``.Pybind11Extension``.
|
|
`#3436 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3436>`_
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
v2.8.1 (Oct 27, 2021)
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Changes and additions:
|
|
|
|
* The simple namespace creation shortcut added in 2.8.0 was deprecated due to
|
|
usage of CPython internal API, and will be removed soon. Use
|
|
``py::module_::import("types").attr("SimpleNamespace")``.
|
|
`#3374 <https://github.com/pybinyyd/pybind11/pull/3374>`_
|
|
|
|
* Add C++ Exception type to throw and catch ``AttributeError``. Useful for
|
|
defining custom ``__setattr__`` and ``__getattr__`` methods.
|
|
`#3387 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3387>`_
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Fixed the potential for dangling references when using properties with
|
|
``std::optional`` types.
|
|
`#3376 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3376>`_
|
|
|
|
* Modernize usage of ``PyCodeObject`` on Python 3.9+ (moving toward support for
|
|
Python 3.11a1)
|
|
`#3368 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3368>`_
|
|
|
|
* A long-standing bug in ``eigen.h`` was fixed (originally PR #3343). The bug
|
|
was unmasked by newly added ``static_assert``'s in the Eigen 3.4.0 release.
|
|
`#3352 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3352>`_
|
|
|
|
* Support multiple raw inclusion of CMake helper files (Conan.io does this for
|
|
multi-config generators).
|
|
`#3420 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3420>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix harmless warning on upcoming CMake 3.22.
|
|
`#3368 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3368>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix 2.8.0 regression with MSVC 2017 + C++17 mode + Python 3.
|
|
`#3407 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3407>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix 2.8.0 regression that caused undefined behavior (typically
|
|
segfaults) in ``make_key_iterator``/``make_value_iterator`` if dereferencing
|
|
the iterator returned a temporary value instead of a reference.
|
|
`#3348 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3348>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
v2.8.0 (Oct 4, 2021)
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
* Added ``py::raise_from`` to enable chaining exceptions.
|
|
`#3215 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3215>`_
|
|
|
|
* Allow exception translators to be optionally registered local to a module
|
|
instead of applying globally across all pybind11 modules. Use
|
|
``register_local_exception_translator(ExceptionTranslator&& translator)``
|
|
instead of ``register_exception_translator(ExceptionTranslator&&
|
|
translator)`` to keep your exception remapping code local to the module.
|
|
`#2650 <https://github.com/pybinyyd/pybind11/pull/2650>`_
|
|
|
|
* Add ``make_simple_namespace`` function for instantiating Python
|
|
``SimpleNamespace`` objects. **Deprecated in 2.8.1.**
|
|
`#2840 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2840>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11::scoped_interpreter`` and ``initialize_interpreter`` have new
|
|
arguments to allow ``sys.argv`` initialization.
|
|
`#2341 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2341>`_
|
|
|
|
* Allow Python builtins to be used as callbacks in CPython.
|
|
`#1413 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1413>`_
|
|
|
|
* Added ``view`` to view arrays with a different datatype.
|
|
`#987 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/987>`_
|
|
|
|
* Implemented ``reshape`` on arrays.
|
|
`#984 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/984>`_
|
|
|
|
* Enable defining custom ``__new__`` methods on classes by fixing bug
|
|
preventing overriding methods if they have non-pybind11 siblings.
|
|
`#3265 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3265>`_
|
|
|
|
* Add ``make_value_iterator()``, and fix ``make_key_iterator()`` to return
|
|
references instead of copies.
|
|
`#3293 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3293>`_
|
|
|
|
* Improve the classes generated by ``bind_map``: `#3310 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3310>`_
|
|
|
|
* Change ``.items`` from an iterator to a dictionary view.
|
|
* Add ``.keys`` and ``.values`` (both dictionary views).
|
|
* Allow ``__contains__`` to take any object.
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11::custom_type_setup`` was added, for customizing the
|
|
``PyHeapTypeObject`` corresponding to a class, which may be useful for
|
|
enabling garbage collection support, among other things.
|
|
`#3287 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3287>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes:
|
|
|
|
* Set ``__file__`` constant when running ``eval_file`` in an embedded interpreter.
|
|
`#3233 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3233>`_
|
|
|
|
* Python objects and (C++17) ``std::optional`` now accepted in ``py::slice``
|
|
constructor.
|
|
`#1101 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1101>`_
|
|
|
|
* The pybind11 proxy types ``str``, ``bytes``, ``bytearray``, ``tuple``,
|
|
``list`` now consistently support passing ``ssize_t`` values for sizes and
|
|
indexes. Previously, only ``size_t`` was accepted in several interfaces.
|
|
`#3219 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3219>`_
|
|
|
|
* Avoid evaluating ``PYBIND11_TLS_REPLACE_VALUE`` arguments more than once.
|
|
`#3290 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3290>`_
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Bug fix: enum value's ``__int__`` returning non-int when underlying type is
|
|
bool or of char type.
|
|
`#1334 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1334>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fixes bug in setting error state in Capsule's pointer methods.
|
|
`#3261 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3261>`_
|
|
|
|
* A long-standing memory leak in ``py::cpp_function::initialize`` was fixed.
|
|
`#3229 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3229>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fixes thread safety for some ``pybind11::type_caster`` which require lifetime
|
|
extension, such as for ``std::string_view``.
|
|
`#3237 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3237>`_
|
|
|
|
* Restore compatibility with gcc 4.8.4 as distributed by ubuntu-trusty, linuxmint-17.
|
|
`#3270 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3270>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build system improvements:
|
|
|
|
* Fix regression in CMake Python package config: improper use of absolute path.
|
|
`#3144 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3144>`_
|
|
|
|
* Cached Python version information could become stale when CMake was re-run
|
|
with a different Python version. The build system now detects this and
|
|
updates this information.
|
|
`#3299 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3299>`_
|
|
|
|
* Specified UTF8-encoding in setup.py calls of open().
|
|
`#3137 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3137>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix a harmless warning from CMake 3.21 with the classic Python discovery.
|
|
`#3220 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3220>`_
|
|
|
|
* Eigen repo and version can now be specified as cmake options.
|
|
`#3324 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3324>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Backend and tidying up:
|
|
|
|
* Reduced thread-local storage required for keeping alive temporary data for
|
|
type conversion to one key per ABI version, rather than one key per extension
|
|
module. This makes the total thread-local storage required by pybind11 2
|
|
keys per ABI version.
|
|
`#3275 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3275>`_
|
|
|
|
* Optimize NumPy array construction with additional moves.
|
|
`#3183 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3183>`_
|
|
|
|
* Conversion to ``std::string`` and ``std::string_view`` now avoids making an
|
|
extra copy of the data on Python >= 3.3.
|
|
`#3257 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3257>`_
|
|
|
|
* Remove const modifier from certain C++ methods on Python collections
|
|
(``list``, ``set``, ``dict``) such as (``clear()``, ``append()``,
|
|
``insert()``, etc...) and annotated them with ``py-non-const``.
|
|
|
|
* Enable readability ``clang-tidy-const-return`` and remove useless consts.
|
|
`#3254 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3254>`_
|
|
`#3194 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3194>`_
|
|
|
|
* The clang-tidy ``google-explicit-constructor`` option was enabled.
|
|
`#3250 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3250>`_
|
|
|
|
* Mark a pytype move constructor as noexcept (perf).
|
|
`#3236 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3236>`_
|
|
|
|
* Enable clang-tidy check to guard against inheritance slicing.
|
|
`#3210 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3210>`_
|
|
|
|
* Legacy warning suppression pragma were removed from eigen.h. On Unix
|
|
platforms, please use -isystem for Eigen include directories, to suppress
|
|
compiler warnings originating from Eigen headers. Note that CMake does this
|
|
by default. No adjustments are needed for Windows.
|
|
`#3198 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3198>`_
|
|
|
|
* Format pybind11 with isort consistent ordering of imports
|
|
`#3195 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3195>`_
|
|
|
|
* The warnings-suppression "pragma clamp" at the top/bottom of pybind11 was
|
|
removed, clearing the path to refactoring and IWYU cleanup.
|
|
`#3186 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3186>`_
|
|
|
|
* Enable most bugprone checks in clang-tidy and fix the found potential bugs
|
|
and poor coding styles.
|
|
`#3166 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3166>`_
|
|
|
|
* Add ``clang-tidy-readability`` rules to make boolean casts explicit improving
|
|
code readability. Also enabled other misc and readability clang-tidy checks.
|
|
`#3148 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3148>`_
|
|
|
|
* Move object in ``.pop()`` for list.
|
|
`#3116 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3116>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
v2.7.1 (Aug 3, 2021)

|
|
v2.7.0 (Jul 16, 2021)
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
* Enable ``py::implicitly_convertible<py::none, ...>`` for
|
|
``py::class_``-wrapped types.
|
|
`#3059 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3059>`_
|
|
|
|
* Allow function pointer extraction from overloaded functions.
|
|
`#2944 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2944>`_
|
|
|
|
* NumPy: added ``.char_()`` to type which gives the NumPy public ``char``
|
|
result, which also distinguishes types by bit length (unlike ``.kind()``).
|
|
`#2864 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2864>`_
|
|
|
|
* Add ``pybind11::bytearray`` to manipulate ``bytearray`` similar to ``bytes``.
|
|
`#2799 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2799>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11/stl/filesystem.h`` registers a type caster that, on C++17/Python
|
|
3.6+, converts ``std::filesystem::path`` to ``pathlib.Path`` and any
|
|
``os.PathLike`` to ``std::filesystem::path``.
|
|
`#2730 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2730>`_
|
|
|
|
* A ``PYBIND11_VERSION_HEX`` define was added, similar to ``PY_VERSION_HEX``.
|
|
`#3120 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3120>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes:
|
|
|
|
* ``py::str`` changed to exclusively hold ``PyUnicodeObject``. Previously
|
|
``py::str`` could also hold ``bytes``, which is probably surprising, was
|
|
never documented, and can mask bugs (e.g. accidental use of ``py::str``
|
|
instead of ``py::bytes``).
|
|
`#2409 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2409>`_
|
|
|
|
* Add a safety guard to ensure that the Python GIL is held when C++ calls back
|
|
into Python via ``object_api<>::operator()`` (e.g. ``py::function``
|
|
``__call__``). (This feature is available for Python 3.6+ only.)
|
|
`#2919 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2919>`_
|
|
|
|
* Catch a missing ``self`` argument in calls to ``__init__()``.
|
|
`#2914 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2914>`_
|
|
|
|
* Use ``std::string_view`` if available to avoid a copy when passing an object
|
|
to a ``std::ostream``.
|
|
`#3042 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3042>`_
|
|
|
|
* An important warning about thread safety was added to the ``iostream.h``
|
|
documentation; attempts to make ``py::scoped_ostream_redirect`` thread safe
|
|
have been removed, as it was only partially effective.

`#2995 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2995>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Performance: avoid unnecessary strlen calls.
|
|
`#3058 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3058>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix auto-generated documentation string when using ``const T`` in
|
|
``pyarray_t``.
|
|
`#3020 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3020>`_
|
|
|
|
* Unify error messages thrown by ``simple_collector``/``unpacking_collector``.
|
|
`#3013 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3013>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11::builtin_exception`` is now explicitly exported, which means the
|
|
types included/defined in different modules are identical, and exceptions
|
|
raised in different modules can be caught correctly. The documentation was
|
|
updated to explain that custom exceptions that are used across module
|
|
boundaries need to be explicitly exported as well.
|
|
`#2999 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2999>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fixed exception when printing UTF-8 to a ``scoped_ostream_redirect``.
|
|
`#2982 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2982>`_
|
|
|
|
* Pickle support enhancement: ``setstate`` implementation will attempt to
|
|
``setattr`` ``__dict__`` only if the unpickled ``dict`` object is not empty,
|
|
to not force use of ``py::dynamic_attr()`` unnecessarily.
|
|
`#2972 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2972>`_
|
|
|
|
* Allow negative timedelta values to roundtrip.
|
|
`#2870 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2870>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix unchecked errors could potentially swallow signals/other exceptions.
|
|
`#2863 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2863>`_
|
|
|
|
* Add null pointer check with ``std::localtime``.
|
|
`#2846 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2846>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix the ``weakref`` constructor from ``py::object`` to create a new
|
|
``weakref`` on conversion.
|
|
`#2832 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2832>`_
|
|
|
|
* Avoid relying on exceptions in C++17 when getting a ``shared_ptr`` holder
|
|
from a ``shared_from_this`` class.
|
|
`#2819 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2819>`_
|
|
|
|
* Allow the codec's exception to be raised instead of :code:`RuntimeError` when
|
|
casting from :code:`py::str` to :code:`std::string`.
|
|
`#2903 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2903>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Build system improvements:
|
|
|
|
* In ``setup_helpers.py``, test for platforms that have some multiprocessing
|
|
features but lack semaphores, which ``ParallelCompile`` requires.
|
|
`#3043 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3043>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix ``pybind11_INCLUDE_DIR`` in case ``CMAKE_INSTALL_INCLUDEDIR`` is
|
|
absolute.
|
|
`#3005 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3005>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix bug not respecting ``WITH_SOABI`` or ``WITHOUT_SOABI`` to CMake.
|
|
`#2938 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2938>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix the default ``Pybind11Extension`` compilation flags with a Mingw64 python.
|
|
`#2921 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2921>`_
|
|
|
|
* Clang on Windows: do not pass ``/MP`` (ignored flag).
|
|
`#2824 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2824>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11.setup_helpers.intree_extensions`` can be used to generate
|
|
``Pybind11Extension`` instances from cpp files placed in the Python package
|
|
source tree.
|
|
`#2831 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2831>`_
|
|
|
|
Backend and tidying up:
|
|
|
|
* Enable clang-tidy performance, readability, and modernization checks
|
|
throughout the codebase to enforce best coding practices.
|

|
|
`#3094 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3094>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Checks for common misspellings were added to the pre-commit hooks.
|
|
`#3076 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3076>`_
|
|
|
|
* Changed ``Werror`` to stricter ``Werror-all`` for Intel compiler and fixed
|
|
minor issues.
|
|
`#2948 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2948>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fixed compilation with GCC < 5 when the user defines ``_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI``.
|
|
`#2956 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2956>`_
|
|
|
|
* Added nox support for easier local testing and linting of contributions.
|
|
`#3101 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3101>`_ and
|
|
`#3121 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3121>`_
|
|
|
|
* Avoid RTD style issue with docutils 0.17+.
|
|
`#3119 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3119>`_
|
|
|
|
* Support pipx run, such as ``pipx run pybind11 --include`` for a quick compile.
|
|
`#3117 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/3117>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
v2.6.2 (Jan 26, 2021)
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Minor missing functionality added:
|
|
|
|
* enum: add missing Enum.value property.
|
|
`#2739 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2739>`_
|
|
|
|
* Allow thread termination to be avoided during shutdown for CPython 3.7+ via
|
|
``.disarm`` for ``gil_scoped_acquire``/``gil_scoped_release``.
|
|
`#2657 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2657>`_
|
|
|
|
Fixed or improved behavior in a few special cases:
|
|
|
|
* Fix bug where the constructor of ``object`` subclasses would not throw on
|
|
being passed a Python object of the wrong type.
|
|
`#2701 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2701>`_
|
|
|
|
* The ``type_caster`` for integers does not convert Python objects with
|
|
``__int__`` anymore with ``noconvert`` or during the first round of trying
|
|
overloads.
|
|
`#2698 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2698>`_
|
|
|
|
* When casting to a C++ integer, ``__index__`` is always called and not
|
|
considered as conversion, consistent with Python 3.8+.
|
|
`#2801 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2801>`_
|
|
|
|
Build improvements:
|
|
|
|
* Setup helpers: ``extra_compile_args`` and ``extra_link_args`` automatically set by
|
|
Pybind11Extension are now prepended, which allows them to be overridden
|
|
by user-set ``extra_compile_args`` and ``extra_link_args``.
|
|
`#2808 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2808>`_
|
|
|
|
* Setup helpers: Don't trigger unused parameter warning.
|
|
`#2735 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2735>`_
|
|
|
|
* CMake: Support running with ``--warn-uninitialized`` active.
|
|
`#2806 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2806>`_
|
|
|
|
* CMake: Avoid error if included from two submodule directories.
|
|
`#2804 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2804>`_
|
|
|
|
* CMake: Fix ``STATIC`` / ``SHARED`` being ignored in FindPython mode.
|
|
`#2796 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2796>`_
|
|
|
|
* CMake: Respect the setting for ``CMAKE_CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET`` if defined.
|
|
`#2793 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2793>`_
|
|
|
|
* CMake: Fix issue with FindPython2/FindPython3 not working with ``pybind11::embed``.
|
|
`#2662 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2662>`_
|
|
|
|
* CMake: mixing local and installed pybind11's would prioritize the installed
|
|
one over the local one (regression in 2.6.0).
|
|
`#2716 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2716>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bug fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Fixed segfault in multithreaded environments when using
|
|
``scoped_ostream_redirect``.
|
|
`#2675 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2675>`_
|
|
|
|
* Leave docstring unset when all docstring-related options are disabled, rather
|
|
than set an empty string.
|
|
`#2745 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2745>`_
|
|
|
|
* The module key in builtins that pybind11 uses to store its internals changed
|
|
from std::string to a python str type (more natural on Python 2, no change on
|
|
Python 3).
|
|
`#2814 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2814>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fixed assertion error related to unhandled (later overwritten) exception in
|
|
CPython 3.8 and 3.9 debug builds.
|
|
`#2685 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2685>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix ``py::gil_scoped_acquire`` assert with CPython 3.9 debug build.
|
|
`#2683 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2683>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fix issue with a test failing on pytest 6.2.
|
|
`#2741 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2741>`_
|
|
|
|
Warning fixes:
|
|
|
|
* Fix warning modifying constructor parameter 'flag' that shadows a field of
|
|
'set_flag' ``[-Wshadow-field-in-constructor-modified]``.
|
|
`#2780 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2780>`_
|
|
|
|
* Suppressed some deprecation warnings about old-style
|
|
``__init__``/``__setstate__`` in the tests.
|
|
`#2759 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2759>`_
|
|
|
|
Valgrind work:
|
|
|
|
* Fix invalid access when calling a pybind11 ``__init__`` on a non-pybind11
|
|
class instance.
|
|
`#2755 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2755>`_
|
|
|
|
* Fixed various minor memory leaks in pybind11's test suite.
|
|
`#2758 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2758>`_
|
|
|
|
* Resolved memory leak in cpp_function initialization when exceptions occurred.
|
|
`#2756 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2756>`_
|
|
|
|
* Added a Valgrind build, checking for leaks and memory-related UB, to CI.
|
|
`#2746 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2746>`_
|
|
|
|
Compiler support:
|
|
|
|
* Intel compiler was not activating C++14 support due to a broken define.
|
|
`#2679 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2679>`_
|
|
|
|
* Support ICC and NVIDIA HPC SDK in C++17 mode.
|
|
`#2729 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2729>`_
|
|
|
|
* Support Intel OneAPI compiler (ICC 20.2) and add to CI.
|
|
`#2573 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2573>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
v2.6.1 (Nov 11, 2020)
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
* ``py::exec``, ``py::eval``, and ``py::eval_file`` now add the builtins module
|
|
as ``"__builtins__"`` to their ``globals`` argument, better matching ``exec``
|
|
and ``eval`` in pure Python.
|
|
`#2616 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2616>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``setup_helpers`` will no longer set a minimum macOS version higher than the
|
|
current version.
|
|
`#2622 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2622>`_
|
|
|
|
* Allow deleting static properties.
|
|
`#2629 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2629>`_
|
|
|
|
* Seal a leak in ``def_buffer``, cleaning up the ``capture`` object after the
|
|
``class_`` object goes out of scope.
|
|
`#2634 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2634>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11_INCLUDE_DIRS`` was incorrect, potentially causing a regression if
|
|
it was expected to include ``PYTHON_INCLUDE_DIRS`` (please use targets
|
|
instead).
|
|
`#2636 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2636>`_
|
|
|
|
* Added parameter names to the ``py::enum_`` constructor and methods, avoiding
|
|
``arg0`` in the generated docstrings.
|
|
`#2637 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2637>`_
|
|
|
|
* Added ``needs_recompile`` optional function to the ``ParallelCompiler``
|
|
helper, to allow a recompile to be skipped based on a user-defined function.
|
|
`#2643 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2643>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
v2.6.0 (Oct 21, 2020)
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
See :ref:`upgrade-guide-2.6` for help upgrading to the new version.
|
|
|
|
New features:
|
|
|
|
* Keyword-only arguments supported in Python 2 or 3 with ``py::kw_only()``.
|
|
`#2100 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2100>`_
|
|
|
|
* Positional-only arguments supported in Python 2 or 3 with ``py::pos_only()``.
|
|
`#2459 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2459>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``py::is_final()`` class modifier to block subclassing (CPython only).
|
|
`#2151 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2151>`_
|
|
|
|
* Added ``py::prepend()``, allowing a function to be placed at the beginning of
|
|
the overload chain.
|
|
`#1131 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1131>`_
|
|
|
|
* Access to the type object now provided with ``py::type::of<T>()`` and
|
|
``py::type::of(h)``.
|
|
`#2364 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2364>`_
|
|
|
|
* Perfect forwarding support for methods.
|
|
`#2048 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2048>`_
|
|
|
|
* Added ``py::error_already_set::discard_as_unraisable()``.
|
|
`#2372 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2372>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``py::hash`` is now public.
|
|
`#2217 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2217>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``py::class_<union_type>`` is now supported. Note that writing to one data
|
|
member of the union and reading another (type punning) is UB in C++. Thus
|
|
pybind11-bound enums should never be used for such conversions.
|
|
`#2320 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2320>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Classes now check local scope when registering members, allowing a subclass
|
|
to have a member with the same name as a parent (such as an enum).
|
|
`#2335 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2335>`_
|
|
|
|
Code correctness features:
|
|
|
|
* Error now thrown when ``__init__`` is forgotten on subclasses.
|
|
`#2152 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2152>`_
|
|
|
|
* Throw error if conversion to a pybind11 type if the Python object isn't a
|
|
valid instance of that type, such as ``py::bytes(o)`` when ``py::object o``
|
|
isn't a bytes instance.
|
|
`#2349 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2349>`_
|
|
|
|
* Throw if conversion to ``str`` fails.
|
|
`#2477 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2477>`_
|
|
|
|
|
|
API changes:
|
|
|
|
* ``py::module`` was renamed ``py::module_`` to avoid issues with C++20 when
|
|
used unqualified, but an alias ``py::module`` is provided for backward
|
|
compatibility.
|
|
`#2489 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2489>`_
|
|
|
|
* Public constructors for ``py::module_`` have been deprecated; please use
|
|
``pybind11::module_::create_extension_module`` if you were using the public
|
|
constructor (fairly rare after ``PYBIND11_MODULE`` was introduced).
|
|
`#2552 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2552>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``PYBIND11_OVERLOAD*`` macros and ``get_overload`` function replaced by
|
|
correctly-named ``PYBIND11_OVERRIDE*`` and ``get_override``, fixing
|
|
inconsistencies in the presence of a closing ``;`` in these macros.
|
|
``get_type_overload`` is deprecated.
|
|
`#2325 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2325>`_
|
|
|
|
Packaging / building improvements:
|
|
|
|
* The Python package was reworked to be more powerful and useful.
|
|
`#2433 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2433>`_
|
|
|
|
* :ref:`build-setuptools` is easier thanks to a new
|
|
``pybind11.setup_helpers`` module, which provides utilities to use
|
|
setuptools with pybind11. It can be used via PEP 518, ``setup_requires``,
|
|
or by directly importing or copying ``setup_helpers.py`` into your project.
|
|
|
|
* CMake configuration files are now included in the Python package. Use
|
|
``pybind11.get_cmake_dir()`` or ``python -m pybind11 --cmakedir`` to get
|
|
the directory with the CMake configuration files, or include the
|
|
site-packages location in your ``CMAKE_MODULE_PATH``. Or you can use the
|
|
new ``pybind11[global]`` extra when you install ``pybind11``, which
|
|
installs the CMake files and headers into your base environment in the
|
|
standard location.
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11-config`` is another way to write ``python -m pybind11`` if you
|
|
have your PATH set up.
|
|
|
|
* Added external typing support to the helper module, code from
|
|
``import pybind11`` can now be type checked.
|
|
`#2588 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2588>`_
|
|
|
|
* Minimum CMake required increased to 3.4.
|
|
`#2338 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2338>`_ and
|
|
`#2370 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2370>`_
|
|
|
|
* Full integration with CMake's C++ standard system and compile features
|
|
replaces ``PYBIND11_CPP_STANDARD``.
|
|
|
|
* Generated config file is now portable to different Python/compiler/CMake
|
|
versions.
|
|
|
|
* Virtual environments prioritized if ``PYTHON_EXECUTABLE`` is not set
|
|
(``venv``, ``virtualenv``, and ``conda``) (similar to the new FindPython
|
|
mode).
|
|
|
|
* Other CMake features now natively supported, like
|
|
``CMAKE_INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION``, ``set(CMAKE_CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET
|
|
hidden)``.
|
|
|
|
* ``CUDA`` as a language is now supported.
|
|
|
|
* Helper functions ``pybind11_strip``, ``pybind11_extension``,
|
|
``pybind11_find_import`` added, see :doc:`cmake/index`.
|
|
|
|
* Optional :ref:`find-python-mode` and :ref:`nopython-mode` with CMake.
|
|
`#2370 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2370>`_
|
|
|
|
* Uninstall target added.
|
|
`#2265 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2265>`_ and
|
|
`#2346 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/2346>`_
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11_add_module()`` now accepts an optional ``OPT_SIZE`` flag that
|
|
switches the binding target to size-based optimization if the global build
|
|
type can not always be fixed to ``MinSizeRel`` (except in debug mode, where
|
|
optimizations remain disabled). ``MinSizeRel`` or this flag reduces binary
|
|
size quite substantially (~25% on some platforms).

v2.3.0 (June 11, 2019)
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Significantly reduced module binary size (10-20%) when compiled in C++11 mode
|
|
with GCC/Clang, or in any mode with MSVC. Function signatures are now always
|
|
precomputed at compile time (this was previously only available in C++14 mode

|
1. The ``enum_`` implementation was rewritten from scratch to reduce
|
|
code bloat. Rather than instantiating a full implementation for each
|
|
enumeration, most code is now contained in a generic base class.
|
|
`#1511 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1511>`_.
|
|
|
|
2. The ``value()`` method of ``py::enum_`` now accepts an optional
|
|
docstring that will be shown in the documentation of the associated
|
|
enumeration. `#1160 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1160>`_.
|
|

|
|
`#1416 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1416>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``pybind11/stl.h`` does not convert strings to ``vector<string>`` anymore.

|
|
|
|
* Mark static methods as such to fix auto-generated Sphinx documentation.

|
`#1208 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1208>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added ``__contains__`` method to the bindings of maps (``std::map``,
|
|
``std::unordered_map``).
|
|

|
|
|
* Type caster support for ``std::deque<T>``.
|
|
`#1609 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1609>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Support for ``std::unique_ptr`` holders, whose deleters differ between a base and derived
|
|
class. `#1353 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1353>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Construction of STL array/vector-like data structures from
|
|
iterators. Added an ``extend()`` operation.

v2.2.3 (April 29, 2018)
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* The pybind11 header location detection was replaced by a new implementation
|
|
that no longer depends on ``pip`` internals (the recently released ``pip``
|
|
10 has restricted access to this API).
|
|
`#1190 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1190>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Small adjustment to an implementation detail to work around a compiler segmentation fault in Clang 3.3/3.4.
|
|
`#1350 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1350>`_.
|
|
|
|
* The minimal supported version of the Intel compiler was >= 17.0 since
|
|
pybind11 v2.1. This check is now explicit, and a compile-time error is raised
|
|
if the compiler meet the requirement.
|
|
`#1363 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1363>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed an endianness-related fault in the test suite.
|
|
`#1287 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1287>`_.
|
|
|
|
v2.2.2 (February 7, 2018)
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a segfault when combining embedded interpreter
|
|
shutdown/reinitialization with external loaded pybind11 modules.
|
|
`#1092 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1092>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Eigen support: fixed a bug where Nx1/1xN numpy inputs couldn't be passed as
|
|
arguments to Eigen vectors (which for Eigen are simply compile-time fixed
|
|
Nx1/1xN matrices).
|
|
`#1106 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1106>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Clarified to license by moving the licensing of contributions from
|
|
``LICENSE`` into ``CONTRIBUTING.md``: the licensing of contributions is not
|
|
actually part of the software license as distributed. This isn't meant to be
|
|
a substantial change in the licensing of the project, but addresses concerns
|
|
that the clause made the license non-standard.
|
|
`#1109 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/issues/1109>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a regression introduced in 2.1 that broke binding functions with lvalue
|
|
character literal arguments.
|
|
`#1128 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1128>`_.
|
|
|
|
* MSVC: fix for compilation failures under /permissive-, and added the flag to
|
|
the appveyor test suite.
|
|
`#1155 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1155>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed ``__qualname__`` generation, and in turn, fixes how class names
|
|
(especially nested class names) are shown in generated docstrings.
|
|
`#1171 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1171>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Updated the FAQ with a suggested project citation reference.
|
|
`#1189 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1189>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added fixes for deprecation warnings when compiled under C++17 with
|
|
``-Wdeprecated`` turned on, and add ``-Wdeprecated`` to the test suite
|
|
compilation flags.
|
|
`#1191 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1191>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed outdated PyPI URLs in ``setup.py``.
|
|
`#1213 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1213>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a refcount leak for arguments that end up in a ``py::args`` argument
|
|
for functions with both fixed positional and ``py::args`` arguments.
|
|
`#1216 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1216>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a potential segfault resulting from possible premature destruction of
|
|
``py::args``/``py::kwargs`` arguments with overloaded functions.
|
|
`#1223 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1223>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed ``del map[item]`` for a ``stl_bind.h`` bound stl map.
|
|
`#1229 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1229>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a regression from v2.1.x where the aggregate initialization could
|
|
unintentionally end up at a constructor taking a templated
|
|
``std::initializer_list<T>`` argument.
|
|
`#1249 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1249>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed an issue where calling a function with a keep_alive policy on the same
|
|
nurse/patient pair would cause the internal patient storage to needlessly
|
|
grow (unboundedly, if the nurse is long-lived).
|
|
`#1251 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/issues/1251>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Various other minor fixes.
|
|
|
|
v2.2.1 (September 14, 2017)
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Added ``py::module_::reload()`` member function for reloading a module.
|
|
`#1040 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1040>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a reference leak in the number converter.
|
|
`#1078 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1078>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed compilation with Clang on host GCC < 5 (old libstdc++ which isn't fully
|
|
C++11 compliant). `#1062 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1062>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a regression where the automatic ``std::vector<bool>`` caster would
|
|
fail to compile. The same fix also applies to any container which returns
|
|
element proxies instead of references.
|
|
`#1053 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1053>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a regression where the ``py::keep_alive`` policy could not be applied
|
|
to constructors. `#1065 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1065>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a nullptr dereference when loading a ``py::module_local`` type
|
|
that's only registered in an external module.
|
|
`#1058 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1058>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed implicit conversion of accessors to types derived from ``py::object``.
|
|
`#1076 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1076>`_.
|
|
|
|
* The ``name`` in ``PYBIND11_MODULE(name, variable)`` can now be a macro.
|
|
`#1082 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1082>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Relaxed overly strict ``py::pickle()`` check for matching get and set types.
|
|
`#1064 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1064>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Conversion errors now try to be more informative when it's likely that
|
|
a missing header is the cause (e.g. forgetting ``<pybind11/stl.h>``).
|
|
`#1077 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1077>`_.
|
|
|
|
v2.2.0 (August 31, 2017)
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Support for embedding the Python interpreter. See the
|
|
:doc:`documentation page </advanced/embedding>` for a
|
|
full overview of the new features.
|
|
`#774 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/774>`_,
|
|
`#889 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/889>`_,
|
|
`#892 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/892>`_,
|
|
`#920 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/920>`_.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
#include <pybind11/embed.h>
|
|
namespace py = pybind11;
|
|
|
|
int main() {
|
|
py::scoped_interpreter guard{}; // start the interpreter and keep it alive
|
|
|
|
py::print("Hello, World!"); // use the Python API
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
* Support for inheriting from multiple C++ bases in Python.
|
|
`#693 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/693>`_.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
from cpp_module import CppBase1, CppBase2
|
|
|
|
|
|
class PyDerived(CppBase1, CppBase2):
|
|
def __init__(self):
|
|
CppBase1.__init__(self) # C++ bases must be initialized explicitly
|
|
CppBase2.__init__(self)
|
|
|
|
* ``PYBIND11_MODULE`` is now the preferred way to create module entry points.
|
|
``PYBIND11_PLUGIN`` is deprecated. See :ref:`macros` for details.
|
|
`#879 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/879>`_.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
// new
|
|
PYBIND11_MODULE(example, m) {
|
|
m.def("add", [](int a, int b) { return a + b; });
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// old
|
|
PYBIND11_PLUGIN(example) {
|
|
py::module m("example");
|
|
m.def("add", [](int a, int b) { return a + b; });
|
|
return m.ptr();
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
* pybind11's headers and build system now more strictly enforce hidden symbol
|
|
visibility for extension modules. This should be seamless for most users,
|
|
but see the :doc:`upgrade` if you use a custom build system.
|
|
`#995 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/995>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Support for ``py::module_local`` types which allow multiple modules to
|
|
export the same C++ types without conflicts. This is useful for opaque
|
|
types like ``std::vector<int>``. ``py::bind_vector`` and ``py::bind_map``
|
|
now default to ``py::module_local`` if their elements are builtins or
|
|
local types. See :ref:`module_local` for details.
|
|
`#949 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/949>`_,
|
|
`#981 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/981>`_,
|
|
`#995 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/995>`_,
|
|
`#997 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/997>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Custom constructors can now be added very easily using lambdas or factory
|
|
functions which return a class instance by value, pointer or holder. This
|
|
supersedes the old placement-new ``__init__`` technique.
|
|
See :ref:`custom_constructors` for details.
|
|
`#805 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/805>`_,
|
|
`#1014 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1014>`_.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
struct Example {
|
|
Example(std::string);
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
py::class_<Example>(m, "Example")
|
|
.def(py::init<std::string>()) // existing constructor
|
|
.def(py::init([](int n) { // custom constructor
|
|
return std::make_unique<Example>(std::to_string(n));
|
|
}));
|
|
|
|
* Similarly to custom constructors, pickling support functions are now bound
|
|
using the ``py::pickle()`` adaptor which improves type safety. See the
|
|
:doc:`upgrade` and :ref:`pickling` for details.
|
|
`#1038 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1038>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Builtin support for converting C++17 standard library types and general
|
|
conversion improvements:
|
|
|
|
1. C++17 ``std::variant`` is supported right out of the box. C++11/14
|
|
equivalents (e.g. ``boost::variant``) can also be added with a simple
|
|
user-defined specialization. See :ref:`cpp17_container_casters` for details.
|
|
`#811 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/811>`_,
|
|
`#845 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/845>`_,
|
|
`#989 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/989>`_.
|
|
|
|
2. Out-of-the-box support for C++17 ``std::string_view``.
|
|
`#906 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/906>`_.
|
|
|
|
3. Improved compatibility of the builtin ``optional`` converter.
|
|
`#874 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/874>`_.
|
|
|
|
4. The ``bool`` converter now accepts ``numpy.bool_`` and types which
|
|
define ``__bool__`` (Python 3.x) or ``__nonzero__`` (Python 2.7).
|
|
`#925 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/925>`_.
|
|
|
|
5. C++-to-Python casters are now more efficient and move elements out
|
|
of rvalue containers whenever possible.
|
|
`#851 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/851>`_,
|
|
`#936 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/936>`_,
|
|
`#938 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/938>`_.
|
|
|
|
6. Fixed ``bytes`` to ``std::string/char*`` conversion on Python 3.
|
|
`#817 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/817>`_.
|
|
|
|
7. Fixed lifetime of temporary C++ objects created in Python-to-C++ conversions.
|
|
`#924 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/924>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Scope guard call policy for RAII types, e.g. ``py::call_guard<py::gil_scoped_release>()``,
|
|
``py::call_guard<py::scoped_ostream_redirect>()``. See :ref:`call_policies` for details.
|
|
`#740 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/740>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Utility for redirecting C++ streams to Python (e.g. ``std::cout`` ->
|
|
``sys.stdout``). Scope guard ``py::scoped_ostream_redirect`` in C++ and
|
|
a context manager in Python. See :ref:`ostream_redirect`.
|
|
`#1009 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1009>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved handling of types and exceptions across module boundaries.
|
|
`#915 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/915>`_,
|
|
`#951 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/951>`_,
|
|
`#995 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/995>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed destruction order of ``py::keep_alive`` nurse/patient objects
|
|
in reference cycles.
|
|
`#856 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/856>`_.
|
|
|
|
* NumPy and buffer protocol related improvements:
|
|
|
|
1. Support for negative strides in Python buffer objects/numpy arrays. This
|
|
required changing integers from unsigned to signed for the related C++ APIs.
|
|
Note: If you have compiler warnings enabled, you may notice some new conversion
|
|
warnings after upgrading. These can be resolved with ``static_cast``.
|
|
`#782 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/782>`_.
|
|
|
|
2. Support ``std::complex`` and arrays inside ``PYBIND11_NUMPY_DTYPE``.
|
|
`#831 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/831>`_,
|
|
`#832 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/832>`_.
|
|
|
|
3. Support for constructing ``py::buffer_info`` and ``py::arrays`` using
|
|
arbitrary containers or iterators instead of requiring a ``std::vector``.
|
|
`#788 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/788>`_,
|
|
`#822 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/822>`_,
|
|
`#860 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/860>`_.
|
|
|
|
4. Explicitly check numpy version and require >= 1.7.0.
|
|
`#819 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/819>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Support for allowing/prohibiting ``None`` for specific arguments and improved
|
|
``None`` overload resolution order. See :ref:`none_arguments` for details.
|
|
`#843 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/843>`_.
|
|
`#859 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/859>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added ``py::exec()`` as a shortcut for ``py::eval<py::eval_statements>()``
|
|
and support for C++11 raw string literals as input. See :ref:`eval`.
|
|
`#766 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/766>`_,
|
|
`#827 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/827>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``py::vectorize()`` ignores non-vectorizable arguments and supports
|
|
member functions.
|
|
`#762 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/762>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Support for bound methods as callbacks (``pybind11/functional.h``).
|
|
`#815 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/815>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Allow aliasing pybind11 methods: ``cls.attr("foo") = cls.attr("bar")``.
|
|
`#802 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/802>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Don't allow mixed static/non-static overloads.
|
|
`#804 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/804>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed overriding static properties in derived classes.
|
|
`#784 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/784>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added support for write only properties.
|
|
`#1144 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1144>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved deduction of member functions of a derived class when its bases
|
|
aren't registered with pybind11.
|
|
`#855 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/855>`_.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
struct Base {
|
|
int foo() { return 42; }
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
struct Derived : Base {}
|
|
|
|
// Now works, but previously required also binding `Base`
|
|
py::class_<Derived>(m, "Derived")
|
|
.def("foo", &Derived::foo); // function is actually from `Base`
|
|
|
|
* The implementation of ``py::init<>`` now uses C++11 brace initialization
|
|
syntax to construct instances, which permits binding implicit constructors of
|
|
aggregate types. `#1015 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1015>`_.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
struct Aggregate {
|
|
int a;
|
|
std::string b;
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
py::class_<Aggregate>(m, "Aggregate")
|
|
.def(py::init<int, const std::string &>());
|
|
|
|
* Fixed issues with multiple inheritance with offset base/derived pointers.
|
|
`#812 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/812>`_,
|
|
`#866 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/866>`_,
|
|
`#960 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/960>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed reference leak of type objects.
|
|
`#1030 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1030>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved support for the ``/std:c++14`` and ``/std:c++latest`` modes
|
|
on MSVC 2017.
|
|
`#841 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/841>`_,
|
|
`#999 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/999>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed detection of private operator new on MSVC.
|
|
`#893 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/893>`_,
|
|
`#918 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/918>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Intel C++ compiler compatibility fixes.
|
|
`#937 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/937>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed implicit conversion of ``py::enum_`` to integer types on Python 2.7.
|
|
`#821 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/821>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added ``py::hash`` to fetch the hash value of Python objects, and
|
|
``.def(hash(py::self))`` to provide the C++ ``std::hash`` as the Python
|
|
``__hash__`` method.
|
|
`#1034 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1034>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed ``__truediv__`` on Python 2 and ``__itruediv__`` on Python 3.
|
|
`#867 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/867>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``py::capsule`` objects now support the ``name`` attribute. This is useful
|
|
for interfacing with ``scipy.LowLevelCallable``.
|
|
`#902 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/902>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed ``py::make_iterator``'s ``__next__()`` for past-the-end calls.
|
|
`#897 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/897>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added ``error_already_set::matches()`` for checking Python exceptions.
|
|
`#772 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/772>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Deprecated ``py::error_already_set::clear()``. It's no longer needed
|
|
following a simplification of the ``py::error_already_set`` class.
|
|
`#954 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/954>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Deprecated ``py::handle::operator==()`` in favor of ``py::handle::is()``

|
`#825 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/825>`_.
|
|

|
|
Use ``py::object::borrowed_t{}``/``py::object::stolen_t{}`` instead.

v2.1.1 (April 7, 2017)
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Fixed minimum version requirement for MSVC 2015u3
|
|
`#773 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/773>`_.
|
|
|
|
v2.1.0 (March 22, 2017)
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* pybind11 now performs function overload resolution in two phases. The first
|
|
phase only considers exact type matches, while the second allows for implicit
|
|
conversions to take place. A special ``noconvert()`` syntax can be used to
|
|
completely disable implicit conversions for specific arguments.
|
|
`#643 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/643>`_,
|
|
`#634 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/634>`_,
|
|
`#650 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/650>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed a regression where static properties no longer worked with classes
|
|
using multiple inheritance. The ``py::metaclass`` attribute is no longer
|
|
necessary (and deprecated as of this release) when binding classes with
|
|
static properties.
|
|
`#679 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/679>`_,
|
|
|
|
* Classes bound using ``pybind11`` can now use custom metaclasses.
|
|
`#679 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/679>`_,
|
|
|
|
* ``py::args`` and ``py::kwargs`` can now be mixed with other positional
|
|
arguments when binding functions using pybind11.
|
|
`#611 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/611>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved support for C++11 unicode string and character types; added
|
|
extensive documentation regarding pybind11's string conversion behavior.
|
|
`#624 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/624>`_,
|
|
`#636 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/636>`_,
|
|
`#715 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/715>`_.
|
|
|
|
* pybind11 can now avoid expensive copies when converting Eigen arrays to NumPy
|
|
arrays (and vice versa). `#610 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/610>`_.
|
|
|
|
* The "fast path" in ``py::vectorize`` now works for any full-size group of C or
|
|
F-contiguous arrays. The non-fast path is also faster since it no longer performs
|
|
copies of the input arguments (except when type conversions are necessary).
|
|
`#610 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/610>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added fast, unchecked access to NumPy arrays via a proxy object.
|
|
`#746 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/746>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Transparent support for class-specific ``operator new`` and
|
|
``operator delete`` implementations.
|
|
`#755 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/755>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Slimmer and more efficient STL-compatible iterator interface for sequence types.
|
|
`#662 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/662>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved custom holder type support.
|
|
`#607 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/607>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``nullptr`` to ``None`` conversion fixed in various builtin type casters.
|
|
`#732 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/732>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``enum_`` now exposes its members via a special ``__members__`` attribute.
|
|
`#666 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/666>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``std::vector`` bindings created using ``stl_bind.h`` can now optionally
|
|
implement the buffer protocol. `#488 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/488>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Automated C++ reference documentation using doxygen and breathe.
|
|
`#598 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/598>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added minimum compiler version assertions.
|
|
`#727 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/727>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved compatibility with C++1z.
|
|
`#677 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/677>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved ``py::capsule`` API. Can be used to implement cleanup
|
|
callbacks that are involved at module destruction time.
|
|
`#752 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/752>`_.
|
|
|

v2.0.0-rc1 (Dec 23, 2016)
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The pybind11 developers are excited to issue a release candidate of pybind11
|
|
with a subsequent v2.0.0 release planned in early January next year.
|
|
|
|
An incredible amount of effort by went into pybind11 over the last ~5 months,
|
|
leading to a release that is jam-packed with exciting new features and numerous
|
|
usability improvements. The following list links PRs or individual commits
|
|
whenever applicable.
|
|
|
|
Happy Christmas!
|
|
|
|
* Support for binding C++ class hierarchies that make use of multiple
|
|
inheritance. `#410 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/410>`_.
|
|
|
|
* PyPy support: pybind11 now supports nightly builds of PyPy and will
|
|
interoperate with the future 5.7 release. No code changes are necessary,
|
|
everything "just" works as usual. Note that we only target the Python 2.7
|
|
branch for now; support for 3.x will be added once its ``cpyext`` extension
|
|
support catches up. A few minor features remain unsupported for the time
|
|
being (notably dynamic attributes in custom types).
|
|
`#527 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/527>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Significant work on the documentation -- in particular, the monolithic
|
|
``advanced.rst`` file was restructured into a easier to read hierarchical
|
|
organization. `#448 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/448>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Many NumPy-related improvements:
|
|
|
|
1. Object-oriented API to access and modify NumPy ``ndarray`` instances,
|
|
replicating much of the corresponding NumPy C API functionality.
|
|
`#402 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/402>`_.
|
|
|
|
2. NumPy array ``dtype`` array descriptors are now first-class citizens and
|
|
are exposed via a new class ``py::dtype``.
|
|
|
|
3. Structured dtypes can be registered using the ``PYBIND11_NUMPY_DTYPE()``
|
|
macro. Special ``array`` constructors accepting dtype objects were also
|
|
added.
|
|
|
|
One potential caveat involving this change: format descriptor strings
|
|
should now be accessed via ``format_descriptor::format()`` (however, for
|
|
compatibility purposes, the old syntax ``format_descriptor::value`` will
|
|
still work for non-structured data types). `#308
|
|
<https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/308>`_.
|
|
|
|
4. Further improvements to support structured dtypes throughout the system.
|
|
`#472 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/472>`_,
|
|
`#474 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/474>`_,
|
|
`#459 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/459>`_,
|
|
`#453 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/453>`_,
|
|
`#452 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/452>`_, and
|
|
`#505 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/505>`_.
|
|
|
|
5. Fast access operators. `#497 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/497>`_.
|
|
|
|
6. Constructors for arrays whose storage is owned by another object.
|
|
`#440 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/440>`_.
|
|
|
|
7. Added constructors for ``array`` and ``array_t`` explicitly accepting shape
|
|
and strides; if strides are not provided, they are deduced assuming
|
|
C-contiguity. Also added simplified constructors for 1-dimensional case.
|
|
|
|
8. Added buffer/NumPy support for ``char[N]`` and ``std::array<char, N>`` types.
|
|
|
|
9. Added ``memoryview`` wrapper type which is constructible from ``buffer_info``.
|
|
|
|
* Eigen: many additional conversions and support for non-contiguous
|
|
arrays/slices.
|
|
`#427 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/427>`_,
|
|
`#315 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/315>`_,
|
|
`#316 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/316>`_,
|
|
`#312 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/312>`_, and
|
|
`#267 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/267>`_
|
|
|
|
* Incompatible changes in ``class_<...>::class_()``:
|
|
|
|
1. Declarations of types that provide access via the buffer protocol must
|
|
now include the ``py::buffer_protocol()`` annotation as an argument to
|
|
the ``class_`` constructor.
|
|
|
|
2. Declarations of types that require a custom metaclass (i.e. all classes
|
|
which include static properties via commands such as
|
|
``def_readwrite_static()``) must now include the ``py::metaclass()``
|
|
annotation as an argument to the ``class_`` constructor.
|
|
|
|
These two changes were necessary to make type definitions in pybind11
|
|
future-proof, and to support PyPy via its cpyext mechanism. `#527
|
|
<https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/527>`_.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. This version of pybind11 uses a redesigned mechanism for instantiating
|
|
trampoline classes that are used to override virtual methods from within
|
|
Python. This led to the following user-visible syntax change: instead of
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
py::class_<TrampolineClass>("MyClass")
|
|
.alias<MyClass>()
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
write
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
py::class_<MyClass, TrampolineClass>("MyClass")
|
|
....
|
|
|
|
Importantly, both the original and the trampoline class are now
|
|
specified as an arguments (in arbitrary order) to the ``py::class_``
|
|
template, and the ``alias<..>()`` call is gone. The new scheme has zero
|
|
overhead in cases when Python doesn't override any functions of the
|
|
underlying C++ class. `rev. 86d825
|
|
<https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/commit/86d825>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added ``eval`` and ``eval_file`` functions for evaluating expressions and
|
|
statements from a string or file. `rev. 0d3fc3
|
|
<https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/commit/0d3fc3>`_.
|
|
|
|
* pybind11 can now create types with a modifiable dictionary.
|
|
`#437 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/437>`_ and
|
|
`#444 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/444>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Support for translation of arbitrary C++ exceptions to Python counterparts.
|
|
`#296 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/296>`_ and
|
|
`#273 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/273>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Report full backtraces through mixed C++/Python code, better reporting for
|
|
import errors, fixed GIL management in exception processing.
|
|
`#537 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/537>`_,
|
|
`#494 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/494>`_,
|
|
`rev. e72d95 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/commit/e72d95>`_, and
|
|
`rev. 099d6e <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/commit/099d6e>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Support for bit-level operations, comparisons, and serialization of C++
|
|
enumerations. `#503 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/503>`_,
|
|
`#508 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/508>`_,
|
|
`#380 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/380>`_,
|
|
`#309 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/309>`_.
|
|
`#311 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/311>`_.
|
|
|
|
* The ``class_`` constructor now accepts its template arguments in any order.
|
|
`#385 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/385>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Attribute and item accessors now have a more complete interface which makes
|
|
it possible to chain attributes as in
|
|
``obj.attr("a")[key].attr("b").attr("method")(1, 2, 3)``. `#425
|
|
<https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/425>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Major redesign of the default and conversion constructors in ``pytypes.h``.
|
|
`#464 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/464>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added built-in support for ``std::shared_ptr`` holder type. It is no longer
|
|
necessary to to include a declaration of the form
|
|
``PYBIND11_DECLARE_HOLDER_TYPE(T, std::shared_ptr<T>)`` (though continuing to
|
|
do so won't cause an error).
|
|
`#454 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/454>`_.
|
|
|
|
* New ``py::overload_cast`` casting operator to select among multiple possible
|
|
overloads of a function. An example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
py::class_<Pet>(m, "Pet")
|
|
.def("set", py::overload_cast<int>(&Pet::set), "Set the pet's age")
|
|
.def("set", py::overload_cast<const std::string &>(&Pet::set), "Set the pet's name");
|
|
|
|
This feature only works on C++14-capable compilers.
|
|
`#541 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/541>`_.
|
|
|
|
* C++ types are automatically cast to Python types, e.g. when assigning
|
|
them as an attribute. For instance, the following is now legal:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cpp
|
|
|
|
py::module m = /* ... */
|
|
m.attr("constant") = 123;
|
|
|
|
(Previously, a ``py::cast`` call was necessary to avoid a compilation error.)
|
|
`#551 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/551>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Redesigned ``pytest``-based test suite. `#321 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/321>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Instance tracking to detect reference leaks in test suite. `#324 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/324>`_
|
|
|
|
* pybind11 can now distinguish between multiple different instances that are
|
|
located at the same memory address, but which have different types.
|
|
`#329 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/329>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved logic in ``move`` return value policy.
|
|
`#510 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/510>`_,
|
|
`#297 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/297>`_.

* Generalized unpacking API to permit calling Python functions from C++ using
|
|
notation such as ``foo(a1, a2, *args, "ka"_a=1, "kb"_a=2, **kwargs)``. `#372 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/372>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``py::print()`` function whose behavior matches that of the native Python
|
|
``print()`` function. `#372 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/372>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added ``py::dict`` keyword constructor:``auto d = dict("number"_a=42,
|
|
"name"_a="World");``. `#372 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/372>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added ``py::str::format()`` method and ``_s`` literal: ``py::str s = "1 + 2
|
|
= {}"_s.format(3);``. `#372 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/372>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added ``py::repr()`` function which is equivalent to Python's builtin
|
|
``repr()``. `#333 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/333>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved construction and destruction logic for holder types. It is now
|
|
possible to reference instances with smart pointer holder types without
|
|
constructing the holder if desired. The ``PYBIND11_DECLARE_HOLDER_TYPE``
|
|
macro now accepts an optional second parameter to indicate whether the holder
|
|
type uses intrusive reference counting.
|
|
`#533 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/533>`_ and
|
|
`#561 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/561>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Mapping a stateless C++ function to Python and back is now "for free" (i.e.
|
|
no extra indirections or argument conversion overheads). `rev. 954b79
|
|
<https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/commit/954b79>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Bindings for ``std::valarray<T>``.
|
|
`#545 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/545>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved support for C++17 capable compilers.
|
|
`#562 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/562>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Bindings for ``std::optional<t>``.
|
|
`#475 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/475>`_,
|
|
`#476 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/476>`_,
|
|
`#479 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/479>`_,
|
|
`#499 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/499>`_, and
|
|
`#501 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/501>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``stl_bind.h``: general improvements and support for ``std::map`` and
|
|
``std::unordered_map``.
|
|
`#490 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/490>`_,
|
|
`#282 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/282>`_,
|
|
`#235 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/235>`_.
|
|
|
|
* The ``std::tuple``, ``std::pair``, ``std::list``, and ``std::vector`` type
|
|
casters now accept any Python sequence type as input. `rev. 107285
|
|
<https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/commit/107285>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Improved CMake Python detection on multi-architecture Linux.
|
|
`#532 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/532>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Infrastructure to selectively disable or enable parts of the automatically
|
|
generated docstrings. `#486 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/486>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``reference`` and ``reference_internal`` are now the default return value
|
|
properties for static and non-static properties, respectively. `#473
|
|
<https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/473>`_. (the previous defaults
|
|
were ``automatic``). `#473 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/473>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Support for ``std::unique_ptr`` with non-default deleters or no deleter at
|
|
all (``py::nodelete``). `#384 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/384>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Deprecated ``handle::call()`` method. The new syntax to call Python
|
|
functions is simply ``handle()``. It can also be invoked explicitly via
|
|
``handle::operator<X>()``, where ``X`` is an optional return value policy.
|
|
|
|
* Print more informative error messages when ``make_tuple()`` or ``cast()``
|
|
fail. `#262 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/262>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Creation of holder types for classes deriving from
|
|
``std::enable_shared_from_this<>`` now also works for ``const`` values.
|
|
`#260 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/260>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``make_iterator()`` improvements for better compatibility with various
|
|
types (now uses prefix increment operator); it now also accepts iterators
|
|
with different begin/end types as long as they are equality comparable.
|
|
`#247 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/247>`_.
|
|
|
|
* ``arg()`` now accepts a wider range of argument types for default values.
|
|
`#244 <https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/244>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Support ``keep_alive`` where the nurse object may be ``None``. `#341
|
|
<https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/341>`_.
|
|
|
|
* Added constructors for ``str`` and ``bytes`` from zero-terminated char
|
|
pointers, and from char pointers and length. Added constructors for ``str``
|
|
from ``bytes`` and for ``bytes`` from ``str``, which will perform UTF-8
|
|
decoding/encoding as required.
|
|
|
|
* Many other improvements of library internals without user-visible changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
1.8.1 (July 12, 2016)
|
|
----------------------
|
|
* Fixed a rare but potentially very severe issue when the garbage collector ran
|
|
during pybind11 type creation.
|
|
|
|
1.8.0 (June 14, 2016)
|
|
----------------------
|
|
* Redesigned CMake build system which exports a convenient
|
|
``pybind11_add_module`` function to parent projects.
|
|
* ``std::vector<>`` type bindings analogous to Boost.Python's ``indexing_suite``
|
|
* Transparent conversion of sparse and dense Eigen matrices and vectors (``eigen.h``)
|
|
* Added an ``ExtraFlags`` template argument to the NumPy ``array_t<>`` wrapper
|
|
to disable an enforced cast that may lose precision, e.g. to create overloads
|
|
for different precisions and complex vs real-valued matrices.
|
|
* Prevent implicit conversion of floating point values to integral types in
|
|
function arguments
|
|
* Fixed incorrect default return value policy for functions returning a shared
|
|
pointer
|
|
* Don't allow registering a type via ``class_`` twice
|
|
* Don't allow casting a ``None`` value into a C++ lvalue reference
|
|
* Fixed a crash in ``enum_::operator==`` that was triggered by the ``help()`` command
|
|
* Improved detection of whether or not custom C++ types can be copy/move-constructed
|
|
* Extended ``str`` type to also work with ``bytes`` instances
|
|
* Added a ``"name"_a`` user defined string literal that is equivalent to ``py::arg("name")``.
|
|
* When specifying function arguments via ``py::arg``, the test that verifies
|
|
the number of arguments now runs at compile time.
|
|
* Added ``[[noreturn]]`` attribute to ``pybind11_fail()`` to quench some
|
|
compiler warnings
|
|
* List function arguments in exception text when the dispatch code cannot find
|
|
a matching overload
|
|
* Added ``PYBIND11_OVERLOAD_NAME`` and ``PYBIND11_OVERLOAD_PURE_NAME`` macros which
|
|
can be used to override virtual methods whose name differs in C++ and Python
|
|
(e.g. ``__call__`` and ``operator()``)
|
|
* Various minor ``iterator`` and ``make_iterator()`` improvements
|
|
* Transparently support ``__bool__`` on Python 2.x and Python 3.x
|
|
* Fixed issue with destructor of unpickled object not being called
|
|
* Minor CMake build system improvements on Windows
|
|
* New ``pybind11::args`` and ``pybind11::kwargs`` types to create functions which
|
|
take an arbitrary number of arguments and keyword arguments
|
|
* New syntax to call a Python function from C++ using ``*args`` and ``*kwargs``
|
|
* The functions ``def_property_*`` now correctly process docstring arguments (these
|
|
formerly caused a segmentation fault)
|
|
* Many ``mkdoc.py`` improvements (enumerations, template arguments, ``DOC()``
|
|
macro accepts more arguments)
|
|
* Cygwin support
|
|

|
|
|
|
1.7 (April 30, 2016)
|
|
----------------------
|
|
* Added a new ``move`` return value policy that triggers C++11 move semantics.
|
|
The automatic return value policy falls back to this case whenever a rvalue
|
|
reference is encountered
|
|
* Significantly more general GIL state routines that are used instead of
|
|
Python's troublesome ``PyGILState_Ensure`` and ``PyGILState_Release`` API
|
|
* Redesign of opaque types that drastically simplifies their usage
|
|
* Extended ability to pass values of type ``[const] void *``
|
|
* ``keep_alive`` fix: don't fail when there is no patient
|
|
* ``functional.h``: acquire the GIL before calling a Python function
|
|
* Added Python RAII type wrappers ``none`` and ``iterable``
|
|
* Added ``*args`` and ``*kwargs`` pass-through parameters to
|
|
``pybind11.get_include()`` function
|
|
* Iterator improvements and fixes
|
|
* Documentation on return value policies and opaque types improved
|
|
|
|
1.6 (April 30, 2016)
|
|
----------------------
|
|
* Skipped due to upload to PyPI gone wrong and inability to recover
|
|
(https://github.com/pypa/packaging-problems/issues/74)
|
|
|
|
1.5 (April 21, 2016)
|
|
----------------------
|
|
* For polymorphic types, use RTTI to try to return the closest type registered with pybind11
|
|
* Pickling support for serializing and unserializing C++ instances to a byte stream in Python
|
|
* Added a convenience routine ``make_iterator()`` which turns a range indicated
|
|
by a pair of C++ iterators into a iterable Python object
|
|
* Added ``len()`` and a variadic ``make_tuple()`` function
|
|
* Addressed a rare issue that could confuse the current virtual function
|
|
dispatcher and another that could lead to crashes in multi-threaded
|
|
applications
|
|
* Added a ``get_include()`` function to the Python module that returns the path
|
|
of the directory containing the installed pybind11 header files
|
|
* Documentation improvements: import issues, symbol visibility, pickling, limitations
|
|
* Added casting support for ``std::reference_wrapper<>``
|
|
|
|
1.4 (April 7, 2016)

|
|
* Allow passing ``nullptr``-valued strings
|
|
* Transparent passing of ``void *`` pointers using capsules
|
|
* Transparent support for returning values wrapped in ``std::unique_ptr<>``
|
|
* Improved docstring generation for compatibility with Sphinx
|
|
* Nicer debug error message when default parameter construction fails
|
|
* Support for "opaque" types that bypass the transparent conversion layer for STL containers
|
|
* Redesigned type casting interface to avoid ambiguities that could occasionally cause compiler errors
|
|
* Redesigned property implementation; fixes crashes due to an unfortunate default return value policy
|
|
* Anaconda package generation support
|
|
|
|
1.3 (March 8, 2016)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Added support for the Intel C++ compiler (v15+)
|
|
* Added support for the STL unordered set/map data structures
|
|
* Added support for the STL linked list data structure
|
|
* NumPy-style broadcasting support in ``pybind11::vectorize``
|
|
* pybind11 now displays more verbose error messages when ``arg::operator=()`` fails
|
|
* pybind11 internal data structures now live in a version-dependent namespace to avoid ABI issues
|
|
* Many, many bugfixes involving corner cases and advanced usage
|
|
|
|
1.2 (February 7, 2016)
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Optional: efficient generation of function signatures at compile time using C++14
|
|
* Switched to a simpler and more general way of dealing with function default
|
|
arguments. Unused keyword arguments in function calls are now detected and
|
|
cause errors as expected
|
|
* New ``keep_alive`` call policy analogous to Boost.Python's ``with_custodian_and_ward``
|
|
* New ``pybind11::base<>`` attribute to indicate a subclass relationship
|
|
* Improved interface for RAII type wrappers in ``pytypes.h``
|
|
* Use RAII type wrappers consistently within pybind11 itself. This
|
|
fixes various potential refcount leaks when exceptions occur
|
|
* Added new ``bytes`` RAII type wrapper (maps to ``string`` in Python 2.7)
|
|
* Made handle and related RAII classes const correct, using them more
|
|
consistently everywhere now
|
|
* Got rid of the ugly ``__pybind11__`` attributes on the Python side---they are
|
|
now stored in a C++ hash table that is not visible in Python
|
|
* Fixed refcount leaks involving NumPy arrays and bound functions
|
|
* Vastly improved handling of shared/smart pointers
|
|
* Removed an unnecessary copy operation in ``pybind11::vectorize``
|
|
* Fixed naming clashes when both pybind11 and NumPy headers are included
|
|
* Added conversions for additional exception types

|
|
other minor clarifications)
|
|
* unified infrastructure for parsing variadic arguments in ``class_`` and cpp_function
|
|
* Fixed license text (was: ZLIB, should have been: 3-clause BSD)
|
|
* Python 3.2 compatibility
|
|
* Fixed remaining issues when accessing types in another plugin module
|
|
* Added enum comparison and casting methods
|
|
* Improved SFINAE-based detection of whether types are copy-constructible
|
|
* Eliminated many warnings about unused variables and the use of ``offsetof()``
|
|
* Support for ``std::array<>`` conversions
|
|
|
|
1.1 (December 7, 2015)

|
|
* Generalized conversion of integer types
|
|
* Improved support for casting function objects
|
|
* Improved support for ``std::shared_ptr<>`` conversions

|
|
* Added an appveyor CI script
|
|
|
|
1.0 (October 15, 2015)
|
|
------------------------
|
|
* Initial release
