1 | SWIG 1.3.x Patches |
2 | ================== | |
d14a1e28 RD |
3 | |
4 | This directory holds a set of patches for the CVS version of SWIG that | |
5 | are required if you wish to use SWIG for wxPython development, or for | |
6 | building your own extension modules that need to interface with | |
7 | wxPython. These have been submitted to SWIG's SourceForge patch | |
8 | tracker, so hopefully they will get incorporated into the main SWIG | |
9 | source tree soon. | |
10 | ||
0ae3258d | 11 | wxPython currently uses the 1.3.29 version of SWIG, which you can get |
9269629e RD |
12 | from https://sourceforge.net/projects/swig/, plus the patch(es) in |
13 | this directory. Download the SWIG sources, apply the patch(es) here | |
14 | and then build as normal. I have also have made available a tarball | |
15 | containing the patched SWIG sources, plus a win32 binary, located | |
16 | here: | |

20 | If you want to use the patched version of SWIG and still have the | |
21 | stock version available for other projects, then you can configure the | |
22 | patched version to use a different --prefix and then specify that | |
23 | executable when running setup.py, like this: | |
f96a7475 | 24 | |
3c1705d9 | 25 | python setup.py SWIG=/path/to/my/swig [other params] |
f96a7475 | 26 | |

31 | swig-1.3.29.patch | |
32 | ||
daf22b89 | 33 | SWIG changed how the import statements are output to the proxy |
0ae3258d RD |
34 | file, but this also caused the order to change (they all moved to |
35 | the very top of the file) so this broke the module docstring, as | |
36 | well as some behavior that Chandler development is depending upon, | |
37 | so this patch changes back to how it was done in prior releases. | |
38 | ||
39 | Changed the exception message used for TypeErrors to make a little | |
40 | more sense. | |
41 | ||
d9f09ac4 RD |
42 | Added support for dropping the leading wx from wxNames using |
43 | %rename("%(wxpy)s") ""; | |
0ae3258d | 44 | |

45 | Don't set a module attribute for the *_swigregister functions, |
46 | just call the one in the extension module directly. | |
0ae3258d | 47 | |
ae200bfc RD |
48 | Fixes to allow compiling with Python 2.5 headers. |

52 | ||
53 | swig-1.3.27.patch | |
54 | ||
55 | SWIG changed slightly how the runtime type_info data is structured | |
56 | in order to optimize load time and runtime access. wxPython | |
57 | uncovered a bug in the implementation, so this patch includes the | |
58 | fix that was checked in to CVS for 1.3.28. | |
59 | ||
daf22b89 | 60 | SWIG changed how the import statements are output to the proxy |
2f810297 RD |
61 | file, but this also caused the order to change (they all moved to |
62 | the very top of the file) so this broke the module docstring, as | |
63 | well as some behavior that Chandler development is depending upon, | |
64 | so this patch changes back to how it was done in prior releases. | |
65 | ||
66 | Bug fix for SWIG's definition of the %makedefault macro. | |
67 | ||
ae200bfc | 68 | Fixes to allow compiling with Python 2.5 headers. |

9269629e | 73 | swig-1.3.24.patch (now obsolete) |
3c1705d9 RD |
74 | |
75 | A bug was introduced in SWIG 1.3.23 and remains in 1.3.24 that | |
76 | causes compilation problems with wxPython (copies are being made | |
77 | of objects that don't have a copy constructor.) This patch fixes | |
78 | the code generator to use a reference to the object instead of | |
79 | making a copy. | |
80 | ||
daf22b89 | 81 | Part of my autodoc patch was disabled because a unit-test failed. |
782ece57 RD |
82 | It turns out that the failure was due to a name clash in the unit |
83 | test itself, so I re-enabled that section of code in this patch. | |
3c1705d9 RD |
84 | |
85 | Don't generate the autodocs string for a class if it has a | |
86 | docstring attribute. | |
87 | ||
88 | Some typos fixed, etc. | |

94 | This patch was added to SWIG's CVS on 10/2/2004 and a modified version | |
95 | of it is in 1.3.23 and 1.3.24. | |

115 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
116 | This patch was applied to SWIG's CVS on 07/12/2004 and is in the | |

120 | swig.xmlout.patch Fixes a couple problems in the XML output |
121 | of SWIG: an extra "/>" was removed and | |
122 | newlines in attribute values were changed | |
123 | to the #10; entity reference so they will | |
124 | be preserved by parsers. | |
1e9b37a2 | 125 | |
414863fd RD |
126 | Also, added options for dumping or |
127 | writing to a file the XML of the parse | |
128 | tree *after* other language modules have | |
129 | been run (previously you could only do | |
130 | the XML output *instead of* a regular | |
131 | language module.) | |
132 | See SF Patch #864689 | |

141 | swig.SplitLines.patch Adds a new SplitLines function to the DOH |
142 | library. See SF Patch #829317. | |
143 | *Checked in 10/31/2003* | |
144 | ||
145 | swig.xml.patch Adds an option that drastically reduces | |
146 | the size of the XML output of SWIG, which | |
147 | increases the performance of the | |
148 | build_renamers script used in the wxPython | |
149 | build. See SF Patch #829319. | |
150 | *Checked in 10/31/2003* | |
151 | ||
152 | swig.python.patch Lots of changes for SWIG's Python module, | |
153 | especially in how the proxy code is | |
154 | generated. See swig.python.patch.txt for | |
155 | more details, also SF Patch #829325. | |
