Version 0.48.0
This release is particularly small as it was present to catch anything that missed the 0.47.0 deadline (the deadline deliberately coincided with the end of support for Python 2.7). The next release will be considerably larger.
The core changes in this release are dominated by the start of the clean up needed for the end of Python 2.7 support, improvements to the CUDA target and support for numerous additional unicode string methods.
Enhancements from user contributed PRs (with thanks!):
Brian Wignall fixed more spelling typos in.
Denis Smirnov added support for string methods capitalize, casefold, swapcase , rsplit , partition and splitlines .
Elena Totmenina extended support for string methods startswith and added endswith .
Eric Wieser made type_callable return the decorated function itself in
Ethan Pronovost added support for np.argwhere in
Graham Markall contributed a large number of CUDA enhancements and fixes, namely:
* Remove Python 3.4 backports from utils
* Make device_array_like create contiguous arrays
* Don’t launch ForAll kernels with 0 elements
* Fix various issues in CUDA library search
* Enable use of records and bools for shared memory, remove ddt, add additional transpose tests
* Fix: Add more appropriate typing for CUDA device arrays
* test_consuming_strides: Keep dev array alive
* State that CUDA Toolkit 8.0 required in docs
James Bourbeau added the Python 3.8 classifier to setup.py in.
John Kirkham added a clarification to the __cuda_array_interface__ documentation in.
Leo Fang Fixed an indexing problem in dummyarray in.
Marcel Bargull fixed a build and test issue for Python 3.8 in.
Maria Rubtsov added support for string methods isdecimal , isdigit , isnumeric and replace .
