and is mainly intended for writing portable high-performance

- Proper support for Test::Builder's BAIL_OUT() added
- Fixed error message when fail_skip is set on Test::Builder harness
- Made pherkin -I work again
This is libcerf, a self-contained numeric library that provides an
efficient and accurate implementation of complex error functions,
along with Dawson, Faddeeva, and Voigt functions.
On current GNU/Linux systems, the man page complex(7) has a "see
also" section that lists complex mathematical functions like cabs(3),
cacos(3), and so on. Among them, there is a complex error function.
However, its manual page cerf(3) describes the functions cerf and
cerfc as "unimplemented" and "reserved for future use". The present
library libcerf provides the missing implementation, along with a
related functions. It comes with a set of man pages, including a
page cerf(3) that overwrites the standard one.
NEW IN WAF 1.8.16
-----------------
* Reverted the changes to conf.check(header_name=) as this causes
regressions. Use conf.check(header_name=, link_header_test=False)
- #1647
* Disabled the loading of c_emscripten when building from the Waf tree
* Fixed the documentation build when using Sphinx < 1.3
* Propagate ldflags/LDFLAGS besides linkflags/LINKFLAGS
* Python3 fixes in extras/file_to_object.py
Fixes build of multimedia/mpv.
NEW IN WAF 1.8.15
-----------------
* Enabled multiple commands in run_str/rule
* Fixed conf.check(header_name=) so that it does not link test by default
* Added a workaround for non-standard python installations (Python bug 7352) - #1636
* Enabled conf.check_cfg to use conf.env.env as os environment if provided
* Enabled relative paths in --top and --out
* Enabled gzip compression for Waf file creation with Jython
* Added a workaround for building projects using IronPython
* Added a workarounds for pkg-config usage within msys2 and for inconsistent Python 2 paths
v1.3.0
======
* Added `ffi.memmove()`_.
* Pull request #64: out-of-line API mode: we can now declare
floating-point types with ``typedef float... foo_t;``. This only
works if ``foo_t`` is a float or a double, not ``long double``.
* Issue #217: fix possible unaligned pointer manipulation, which crashes
on some architectures (64-bit, non-x86).
* Issues #64 and #126: when using ``set_source()`` or ``verify()``,
the ``const`` and ``restrict`` keywords are copied from the cdef
to the generated C code; this fixes warnings by the C compiler.
It also fixes corner cases like ``typedef const int T; T a;``
which would previously not consider ``a`` as a constant. (The
cdata objects themselves are never ``const``.)
* Win32: support for ``__stdcall``. For callbacks and function
pointers; regular C functions still don't need to have their `calling
convention`_ declared.
* Windows: CPython 2.7 distutils doesn't work with Microsoft's official
Visual Studio for Python, and I'm told this is `not a bug`__. For
ffi.compile(), we `removed a workaround`__ that was inside cffi but
which had unwanted side-effects. Try saying ``import setuptools``
first, which patches distutils...
.. _`ffi.memmove()`: using.html#memmove
.. __: https://bugs.python.org/issue23246
.. __: https://bitbucket.org/cffi/cffi/pull-requests/65/remove-_hack_at_distutils-which-imports/diff
.. _`calling convention`: using.html#windows-calling-conventions
* Released v1.3.3.
* EbmlMaster::Read(): When the parser encountered a deeply nested
element with an infinite size then a following element of an upper
level was not propagated correctly. Instead the element with the
infinite size was added into the EBML element tree a second time
resulting in memory access after freeing it and multiple attempts
to free the same memory address during destruction. Fixes the
issue reported as Cisco TALOS-CAN-0037.
* EbmlElement::ReadCodedSizeValue(): Fixed an invalid memory
access. When reading a EBML variable length integer value a read
access beyond the end of the available buffer was possible if
fewer bytes were available than indicated by the first byte
resulting in a heap information leak.
* EbmlUnicodeString::UpdateFromUTF8(): Fixed an invalid memory
access. When reading from a UTF-8 string in which the length
indicated by a UTF-8 character's first byte exceeds the string's
actual number of bytes the parser would access beyond the end of
the string resulting in a heap information leak. Fixes the issue
reported as Cisco TALOS-CAN-0036.
Explictly export empty string w/ scalar export if no lib's found
to avoid undefined variable errors in caller.
Added test for explicitly looking up non-existant directory and
exporting it as a scalar.
Test cleanups.
Minor refactoring: Return immediately from import if no lib's are found.
Minor comment and POD issues.
Patch old version, thanks to Dominic Humphries.
Use v5.14 in new version.
Upstream changes:
version 1.20; 2015-10-21
* bugfix: avoid some C undefined behaviour from unsequenced side effects
that in practice bit when using a newer gcc (4.9 rather than 4.7)
with the parser token stack change in Perl 5.21.9
* add doc note advising users to prefer the core aliasing facility on
Perl 5.22
version 1.19; 2015-10-21
* update for new stricture on op_last in Perl 5.21.2
* update for the parser's PL_expect changes in Perl 5.21.4
* update for op_private stricture in Perl 5.21.4

* update for IS_PADGV()'s limited visibility in Perl 5.21.4
* update for increased specialness of OP_PUSHMARK in Perl 5.21.6
* update for distinct PADNAMELIST type in Perl 5.21.7
* update for multideref optimisation in Perl 5.21.7, by a disgusting
hack that depends on a flaw in the optimisation (which may disappear
in the future) and which disables the optimisation entirely
* add MYMETA.json to .gitignore
2015-10-17 Moritz Bunkus <moritz@bunkus.org>
* Released v1.3.2.
2015-08-21 Steve Lhomme <robUx4@gmail.com>
* EbmlElement::FindNextElement(): Handle EOF when reading the
element size properly.
2015-06-15 Steve Lhomme <robUx4@gmail.com
* Disable debug code for builds for the Windows App Store.
2015-06-12 Cristian Morales Vega <reddwarf@opensuse.org>
* Update the license information: use latest official text for the
LGPL.
2015-02-23 Steve Lhomme <robux4@gmail.com>
* EbmlString::ValidateSize(): only allow the same maximum size as
EbmlBinary.
libbson 1.2.0
- Add bson_mem_restore_vtable(), the inverse of bson_mem_set_vtable().
- Enable runtime asserts in release build.
- Fixed compiler warnings and build failures on various platforms.
- Improvements to the formatting and contents of the documentation.
libbson 1.1.11
- Document bson streaming reads with an example, bson-streaming-reader.c.
- Document callback function types bson_reader_destroy_func_t and
bson_reader_read_func_t.
2.8.2
-----
- fix#1085: proper handling of encoding errors when passing encoded byte
strings to pytest.parametrize in Python 2.
Thanks Themanwithoutaplan for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- fix#1087: handling SystemError when passing empty byte strings to
pytest.parametrize in Python 3.
Thanks Paul Kehrer for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- fix#995: fixed internal error when filtering tracebacks where one entry
was generated by an exec() statement.
Thanks Daniel Hahler, Ashley C Straw, Philippe Gauthier and Pavel Savchenko
for contributing and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
2.8.1
-----
- fix#1034: Add missing nodeid on pytest_logwarning call in
addhook. Thanks Simon Gomizelj for the PR.
- 'deprecated_call' is now only satisfied with a DeprecationWarning or
PendingDeprecationWarning. Before 2.8.0, it accepted any warning, and 2.8.0
made it accept only DeprecationWarning (but not PendingDeprecationWarning).
Thanks Alex Gaynor for the issue and Eric Hunsberger for the PR.
- fix issue #1073: avoid calling __getattr__ on potential plugin objects.
This fixes an incompatibility with pytest-django. Thanks Andreas Pelme,
Bruno Oliveira and Ronny Pfannschmidt for contributing and Holger Krekel
for the fix.
- Fix issue #704: handle versionconflict during plugin loading more
gracefully. Thanks Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- Fix issue #1064: ""--junitxml" regression when used with the
"pytest-xdist" plugin, with test reports being assigned to the wrong tests.
Thanks Daniel Grunwald for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- (experimental) adapt more SEMVER style versioning and change meaning of
master branch in git repo: "master" branch now keeps the bugfixes, changes
aimed for micro releases. "features" branch will only be be released
with minor or major pytest releases.
- Fix issue #766 by removing documentation references to distutils.
Thanks Russel Winder.
- Fix issue #1030: now byte-strings are escaped to produce item node ids
to make them always serializable.
Thanks Andy Freeland for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- Python 2: if unicode parametrized values are convertible to ascii, their
ascii representation is used for the node id.
- Fix issue #411: Add __eq__ method to assertion comparison example.
Thanks Ben Webb.
- fix issue 877: properly handle assertion explanations with non-ascii repr
Thanks Mathieu Agopian for the report and Ronny Pfannschmidt for the PR.
- fix issue 1029: transform errors when writing cache values into pytest-warnings
2.8.0
-----------------------------
- new ``--lf`` and ``-ff`` options to run only the last failing tests or
"failing tests first" from the last run. This functionality is provided
through porting the formerly external pytest-cache plugin into pytest core.
BACKWARD INCOMPAT: if you used pytest-cache's functionality to persist
data between test runs be aware that we don't serialize sets anymore.
Thanks Ronny Pfannschmidt for most of the merging work.
- "-r" option now accepts "a" to include all possible reports, similar
to passing "fEsxXw" explicitly (isse960).
Thanks Abhijeet Kasurde for the PR.
- avoid python3.5 deprecation warnings by introducing version
specific inspection helpers, thanks Michael Droettboom.
- fix issue562: @nose.tools.istest now fully respected.
- fix issue934: when string comparison fails and a diff is too large to display
without passing -vv, still show a few lines of the diff.
Thanks Florian Bruhin for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- fix issue736: Fix a bug where fixture params would be discarded when combined
with parametrization markers.
Thanks to Markus Unterwaditzer for the PR.
- fix issue710: introduce ALLOW_UNICODE doctest option: when enabled, the
``u`` prefix is stripped from unicode strings in expected doctest output. This
allows doctests which use unicode to run in Python 2 and 3 unchanged.
Thanks Jason R. Coombs for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- parametrize now also generates meaningful test IDs for enum, regex and class
objects (as opposed to class instances).
Thanks to Florian Bruhin for the PR.
- Add 'warns' to assert that warnings are thrown (like 'raises').
Thanks to Eric Hunsberger for the PR.
- Fix issue683: Do not apply an already applied mark. Thanks ojake for the PR.
- Deal with capturing failures better so fewer exceptions get lost to
/dev/null. Thanks David Szotten for the PR.
- fix issue730: deprecate and warn about the --genscript option.
Thanks Ronny Pfannschmidt for the report and Christian Pommranz for the PR.
- fix issue751: multiple parametrize with ids bug if it parametrizes class with
two or more test methods. Thanks Sergey Chipiga for reporting and Jan
Bednarik for PR.
- fix issue82: avoid loading conftest files from setup.cfg/pytest.ini/tox.ini
files and upwards by default (--confcutdir can still be set to override this).
Thanks Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- fix issue768: docstrings found in python modules were not setting up session
fixtures. Thanks Jason R. Coombs for reporting and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- added `tmpdir_factory`, a session-scoped fixture that can be used to create
directories under the base temporary directory. Previously this object was
installed as a `_tmpdirhandler` attribute of the `config` object, but now it
is part of the official API and using `config._tmpdirhandler` is
deprecated.
Thanks Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- fix issue808: pytest's internal assertion rewrite hook now implements the
optional PEP302 get_data API so tests can access data files next to them.
Thanks xmo-odoo for request and example and Bruno Oliveira for
the PR.
- rootdir and inifile are now displayed during usage errors to help
users diagnose problems such as unexpected ini files which add
unknown options being picked up by pytest. Thanks to Pavel Savchenko for
bringing the problem to attention in #821 and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- Summary bar now is colored yellow for warning
situations such as: all tests either were skipped or xpass/xfailed,
or no tests were run at all (this is a partial fix for issue500).
- fix issue812: pytest now exits with status code 5 in situations where no
tests were run at all, such as the directory given in the command line does
not contain any tests or as result of a command line option filters
all out all tests (-k for example).
Thanks Eric Siegerman (issue812) and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- Summary bar now is colored yellow for warning
situations such as: all tests either were skipped or xpass/xfailed,
or no tests were run at all (related to issue500).
Thanks Eric Siegerman.
- New `testpaths` ini option: list of directories to search for tests
when executing pytest from the root directory. This can be used
to speed up test collection when a project has well specified directories
for tests, being usually more practical than configuring norecursedirs for
all directories that do not contain tests.
Thanks to Adrian for idea (#694) and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- fix issue713: JUnit XML reports for doctest failures.
Thanks Punyashloka Biswal.
- fix issue970: internal pytest warnings now appear as "pytest-warnings" in
the terminal instead of "warnings", so it is clear for users that those
warnings are from pytest and not from the builtin "warnings" module.
Thanks Bruno Oliveira.
- Include setup and teardown in junitxml test durations.
Thanks Janne Vanhala.
- fix issue735: assertion failures on debug versions of Python 3.4+
- new option ``--import-mode`` to allow to change test module importing
behaviour to append to sys.path instead of prepending. This better allows
to run test modules against installated versions of a package even if the
package under test has the same import root. In this example::
testing/__init__.py
testing/test_pkg_under_test.py
pkg_under_test/
the tests will run against the installed version
of pkg_under_test when ``--import-mode=append`` is used whereas
by default they would always pick up the local version. Thanks Holger Krekel.
- pytester: add method ``TmpTestdir.delete_loaded_modules()``, and call it
from ``inline_run()`` to allow temporary modules to be reloaded.
Thanks Eduardo Schettino.
- internally refactor pluginmanager API and code so that there
is a clear distinction between a pytest-agnostic rather simple
pluginmanager and the PytestPluginManager which adds a lot of
behaviour, among it handling of the local conftest files.
In terms of documented methods this is a backward compatible
change but it might still break 3rd party plugins which relied on
details like especially the pluginmanager.add_shutdown() API.
Thanks Holger Krekel.
- pluginmanagement: introduce ``pytest.hookimpl`` and
``pytest.hookspec`` decorators for setting impl/spec
specific parameters. This substitutes the previous
now deprecated use of ``pytest.mark`` which is meant to
contain markers for test functions only.
- write/refine docs for "writing plugins" which now have their
own page and are separate from the "using/installing plugins`` page.
- fix issue732: properly unregister plugins from any hook calling
sites allowing to have temporary plugins during test execution.
- deprecate and warn about ``__multicall__`` argument in hook
implementations. Use the ``hookwrapper`` mechanism instead already
introduced with pytest-2.7.
- speed up pytest's own test suite considerably by using inprocess
tests by default (testrun can be modified with --runpytest=subprocess
to create subprocesses in many places instead). The main
APIs to run pytest in a test is "runpytest()" or "runpytest_subprocess"
and "runpytest_inprocess" if you need a particular way of running
the test. In all cases you get back a RunResult but the inprocess
one will also have a "reprec" attribute with the recorded events/reports.
- fix monkeypatch.setattr("x.y", raising=False) to actually not raise
if "y" is not a pre-existing attribute. Thanks Florian Bruhin.
- fix issue741: make running output from testdir.run copy/pasteable
Thanks Bruno Oliveira.
- add a new ``--noconftest`` argument which ignores all ``conftest.py`` files.
- add ``file`` and ``line`` attributes to JUnit-XML output.
- fix issue890: changed extension of all documentation files from ``txt`` to
``rst``. Thanks to Abhijeet for the PR.
- fix issue714: add ability to apply indirect=True parameter on particular argnames.
Thanks Elizaveta239.
- fix issue890: changed extension of all documentation files from ``txt`` to
``rst``. Thanks to Abhijeet for the PR.
- fix issue957: "# doctest: SKIP" option will now register doctests as SKIPPED
rather than PASSED.
Thanks Thomas Grainger for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- issue951: add new record_xml_property fixture, that supports logging
additional information on xml output. Thanks David Diaz for the PR.
- issue949: paths after normal options (for example `-s`, `-v`, etc) are now
properly used to discover `rootdir` and `ini` files.
Thanks Peter Lauri for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
2.7.3 (compared to 2.7.2)
-----------------------------
- Allow 'dev', 'rc', or other non-integer version strings in `importorskip`.
Thanks to Eric Hunsberger for the PR.
- fix issue856: consider --color parameter in all outputs (for example
--fixtures). Thanks Barney Gale for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- fix issue855: passing str objects as `plugins` argument to pytest.main
is now interpreted as a module name to be imported and registered as a
plugin, instead of silently having no effect.
Thanks xmo-odoo for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- fix issue744: fix for ast.Call changes in Python 3.5+. Thanks
Guido van Rossum, Matthias Bussonnier, Stefan Zimmermann and
Thomas Kluyver.
- fix issue842: applying markers in classes no longer propagate this markers
to superclasses which also have markers.
Thanks xmo-odoo for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- preserve warning functions after call to pytest.deprecated_call. Thanks
Pieter Mulder for PR.
- fix issue854: autouse yield_fixtures defined as class members of
unittest.TestCase subclasses now work as expected.
Thannks xmo-odoo for the report and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- fix issue833: --fixtures now shows all fixtures of collected test files, instead of just the
fixtures declared on the first one.
Thanks Florian Bruhin for reporting and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- fix issue863: skipped tests now report the correct reason when a skip/xfail
condition is met when using multiple markers.
Thanks Raphael Pierzina for reporting and Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
- optimized tmpdir fixture initialization, which should make test sessions
faster (specially when using pytest-xdist). The only visible effect
is that now pytest uses a subdirectory in the $TEMP directory for all
directories created by this fixture (defaults to $TEMP/pytest-$USER).
Thanks Bruno Oliveira for the PR.
0.23.4 (2015-10-10)
===================
Bugs fixed
----------
* Memory leak when calling Python functions in PyPy.
* Compilation problem with MSVC in C99-ish mode.
* Warning about unused values in a helper macro.
0.23.3 (2015-09-29)
===================
Bugs fixed
----------
* Invalid C code for some builtin methods. This fixes ticket 856 again.
* Incorrect C code in helper functions for PyLong conversion and string
decoding. This fixes ticket 863, ticket 864 and ticket 865.
Original patch by Nikolaus Rath.
* Large folded or inserted integer constants could use too small C
integer types and thus trigger a value wrap-around.
Other changes
-------------
* The coroutine and generator types of Cython now also register directly
with the ``Coroutine`` and ``Generator`` ABCs in the ``backports_abc``
module if it can be imported. This fixes ticket 870.
This release brings:
- fixes for memory leaks in the Config and Plugin classes
- fix for memory corruption in the Event class
- improvements to configctl(1)
- additional test for the Event class
- portability fixes (build...)
* Add deprecated warnings to index.rst
* Fix PIDLockFile.acquire() may loop indefinitely
* Fix failure - from lockfile import *
* lockfile.acquire doesn't accept a timeout of 0
* Update README format for our release script
* Begin moving some of the common code to a shared base
* Add pbr to dependency list
* The version of sphinx being brought in is broken
* Fix Git URLs
* Handle the case where cmd.distribution has no pbr attribute
* test_integration cleanups
* Remove redundant testscenarios glue
* Add standard code coverage configuration file
* Add shields.io version/downloads links/badges into README.rst
- prefer noexcept over throw () with C++ 11.
- update ecb.h due to incompatibilities with c11.
- fix a potential aliasing issue when reading and writing
watcher callbacks.
* There were some classes of errors that "git fsck" diagnosed to its
standard error that did not cause it to exit with non-zero status.
* A test script for the HTTP service had a timing dependent bug,
which was fixed.
* Performance-measurement tests did not work without an installed Git.
* On a case insensitive filesystems, setting GIT_WORK_TREE variable
using a random cases that does not agree with what the filesystem
thinks confused Git that it wasn't inside the working tree.
* When "git am" was rewritten as a built-in, it stopped paying
attention to user.signingkey, which was fixed.
* After "git checkout --detach", "git status" reported a fairly
useless "HEAD detached at HEAD", instead of saying at which exact
commit.
* "git rebase -i" had a minor regression recently, which stopped
considering a line that begins with an indented '#' in its insn
sheet not a comment, which is now fixed.
* Description of the "log.follow" configuration variable in "git log"
documentation is now also copied to "git config" documentation.
* Allocation related functions and stdio are unsafe things to call
inside a signal handler, and indeed killing the pager can cause
glibc to deadlock waiting on allocation mutex as our signal handler
tries to free() some data structures in wait_for_pager(). Reduce
these unsafe calls.
* The way how --ref/--notes to specify the notes tree reference are
DWIMmed was not clearly documented.
* Customization to change the behaviour with "make -w" and "make -s"
in our Makefile was broken when they were used together.
* The Makefile always runs the library archiver with hardcoded "crs"
options, which was inconvenient for exotic platforms on which
people want to use programs with totally different set of command
line options.
* The ssh transport, just like any other transport over the network,
did not clear GIT_* environment variables, but it is possible to
use SendEnv and AcceptEnv to leak them to the remote invocation of
Git, which is not a good idea at all. Explicitly clear them just
like we do for the local transport.
* "git blame --first-parent v1.0..v2.0" was not rejected but did not
limit the blame to commits on the first parent chain.
* Very small number of options take a parameter that is optional
(which is not a great UI element as they can only appear at the end
of the command line). Add notice to documentation of each and
every one of them.
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code
clean-ups.
tech-pkg@ discussion on how to better declare need for C++11.
This is necessary due to libsigc++ headers and will probably be
required for everything that depends on gtkmm{,3}.
(there are ~25 or so such packages in pkgsrc the I have not yet tested)
2015-10-05 meld 3.15.0

* Better sensitivity handling for version control actions
* Cache and show more metadata (e.g., file renames)
* Several version control plugins have not been ported to the new API; the
current list of support plugins is: Git, Mercurial, Subversion 1.7+,
Bazaar
* Faster rendering in file comparison view, enabled by new GtkTextView API
(Kai Willadsen)
* Move to using GtkSourceView style schemes with Meld-specific colour tags
for highlight colours; this lets themes include colours that match the
sourceview theme (Kai Willadsen)
* Offer to open binary files externally (Pratik Dayama)
* Show the common ancestor in conflicting regions (and the merged file
everywhere else) when viewing conflicts through Meld's version control
view; currently this is only supported under Git (Kai Willadsen)
* Support showing staged/partially staged status of files under Git (Kai
Willadsen)
* Update preferences dialog to new style with headerbar (Kai Willadsen)
Fixes:
* Documentation updates (Andrew Beyer)
* Fix crash with some GTK+ versions when using --output (Kai Willadsen)
* Fix merge-all action not working at all (Kai Willadsen)
* Fix creating patches with unicode path names (Kai Willadsen)
* Fix copy-to-clipboard option in patch dialog (Kai Willadsen)
* Fix diffmap alignment for new GTK+ allocation behaviour (Kai Willadsen)
* Improve float accuracy in folder comparison timestamp resolution (Kai
Willadsen)
* Fix default SVN keyword filter to escape $ characters (Kai Willadsen)
* Fix display of unicode --help from command line (Kai Willadsen)
* Fix keyboard shortcut docs (Kai Willadsen)
* Don't incorrectly show identical notification for changed folder
comparisons (Kai Willadsen)
Internal changes:
* Requirements are now GTK+ 3.14, GtkSourceView 3.14 and GLib 2.36
* Rewritten version control plugin API
* Unified colour handling between linkmap, diffmap and file comparison
* Move all textview drawing to a new GtkSourceView subclass, using the new
GTK+ draw-layer API

2.6.1 (stable):
* Add back deprecated adaptors/lambda API to avoid an unintented ABI break.
(Kjell Ahlstedt) Bug #755550 (Michael Biebl)
* sigc::trackable: Move operations: Don't move the callback list
(Kjell Ahlstedt) Bug #755393 (Tom Schoonjans)
2.6.0 (stable):
* C++11: deduce_result_type: Simplify with C++11 variadic template.
(Murray Cumming, Marcin Kolny) Bug #753612
* Fix the build with MSVC.
(Chun-wei Fan) Bug #754082
* Update the website.
(Kjell Ahlstedt)
2.5.4 (unstable):
* slot_base::operator=(const &): Copy the blocked too,
so the destionation is blocked if the source is blocked,
regardless of whether the destionation was previously
blocked, because this seems to be what we should expect.
(Murray Cumming)
* C++11: slot_base, slot*, signal_base, signal*, trackable:
Add move operations.
(Murray Cumming)
* Update MSVC Projects, requiring at least MSVC++ .Net 2013
for C++11 support.
(Chun-wei Fan)
2.5.3 (unstable):
* Use C++11 "using" aliases to simplify code that uses type traits.
(Murray Cumming) Bug #753580
2.5.2 (unstable):
* Remove useless headers:
sigc++/class_slot.h
sigc++/hide.h
sigc++/method_slot.h
sigc++/object.h
sigc++/object_slot.h
sigc++/retype.h
Some of these still have equivalents in sigc++/adaptors/
(Kjell Ahlstedt, Murray Cumming) Bug #752560
* C++11: Replace deprecated std::auto_ptr by std::unique_ptr.
(Kjell Ahlstedt)
* C++11: Use std::is_base_of<> instead of our sigc::is_base_and_derived<>,
removing sigc::is_base_and_derived<>.
(Kjell Ahlstedt, Murray Cumming) Bug #752560
* C++11: Use of range-based for loops.
(Murray Cumming)
* C++11: Use of the auto keyword.
(Murray Cumming)
* C++11: Use of nullptr instead of 0.
(Murray Cumming)
* sigc++/slot.h: Use a regular .h file instead of generating it
from an .m4 file. Bug #752560
(Kjell Ahlstedt)
* Visual Studio Builds: Move 2010 Projects to 2012 to support C++11.
(Chun-wei Fan)
* Use -Wformat-security and -Wshadow with --enable-warnings=fatal.
(Murray Cumming)
2.5.1 (unstable):
* Use (and require) C++11
(Kjell Ahlstedt)
* Using C++11 lambda functions to create sigc::slots:
Avoid the need for SIGC_FUNCTORS_DEDUCE_RESULT_TYPE_WITH_DECLTYPE.
(Kjell Ahlstedt)
* Remove the already-deprecated sigc::lambda (and sigc::group) API.
This is an API change but should not be an ABI change, so it should
only affect you when rebuilding applications, if you use this API.
(Murray Cumming, Kjell Ahlstedt)
