SIP v4.8 has been released. The highlights of this release include
support for Python v3, the ability to supply alternate super-types
and meta-types for wrapped objects, and documentation built using
Sphinx.
The major new features are:
* support for Python v3
* the %BIGetBufferCode and %BIReleaseBufferCode to
support the buffer interface of Python v3
* the %DefaultMetatype directive and the
/Metatype/ class annotation to allow the
meta-type of a wrapped type to be changed
* the %DefaultSupertype directive and the
/Supertype/ class annotation to allow the
super-type of a wrapped type to be changed
* the sip.simplewrapper type to be used as a
super-type for wrapped types that don't take
part in parent/child relationships
* the %InitialisationCode directive
* the /KeepReference/ argument annotation
* the /Encoding/ argument, function, typedef and
variable annotation
* super() now works as expected with wrapped types
* support for __floordiv__, __ifloordiv__,
__truediv__, __itruediv__ and __index__
* __bool__ is a synonym for __nonzero__
* Sphinx is now used for the documentation
* many additions and deprecations in the API to
eliminate the differences between classes and
mapped types. (See the documentation for the
details.)
