Full Changelog: v2.4.0...v2.5.0

v2.4.0

1. Drop support for Python 3.6

2. Add official support for Python 3.9, Python 3.10, Python 3.11

3. Replace setup.py by pyproject.toml

v2.3.0

1. Drop support for Python 3.5

2. Make type equivalence check for string and ostream more robust (is_std_string, is_std_wstring, is_std_ostream, is_std_wostream)

3. Skip GCC's __va_list fields on AArch644

4. Add search_path arg to `find_xml_generator

5. Publish pygccxml as source distribution too

v2.2.1

1. Fix issue introduced by 2.2.0 where cflags are not passed to config objects properly.

v2.2.0

1. Add ccflags config parameter. Castxml removes any definitions of its
   pre-defined macros (e.g. -fopenmp). The ccflags option allows users to
   override this behavior.

2. Add an example jupyter notebook for binder

3. Add declaration object for deprecation message

4. Update release documentation

v2.1.0

1. create_temp_file_name: remove deprecated dir argument

2. Warn if "include directories" do not exist.

3. Use "overrides" information from CastXML

4. Add comment parsing from CastXML

v2.0.1

1. Minor description and doc updates for release uploads

v2.0.0

1. Drop support for GCC-XML.

• Drop all the demangled name attributes

• Drop declarations.class_t.USE_DEMANGLED_AS_NAME

2. Drop support for Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4.

3. Add support for Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8.

4. Deprecated all the i_depend_on_them methods from the declaration_t
   class hierarchy. Instead of using decl.i_depend_on_them(), please use the
   declarations.get_dependencies_from_decl(decl) function from the
   declarations module, which returns the same result.

5. Add support for -std=c++17 and -std=c++2a flags

6. Add g++ and gcc to better support gnu compilers on windows

v1.9.1

1. Fix bug in the find_noncopyable_vars method which wrongly returned
   member variables of pointer type (#84)

2. Fix bug in the smart_pointer_traits.value_type and
   auto_pointer_traits.value_type methods which didn't find the expected
   value_type declaration (#85)

3. Fix bug in the smart_pointer_traits.is_smart_pointer and
   auto_pointer_traits.is_smart_pointer methods which didn't properly
   work (#85)

v1.9.0

1. [New features]

• Full Python 3.6 support

• Full pypy and pypy3 support

• Better windows support

• Small performance improvements

• Added is_struct function to declarations package. It returns true if
  a declaration is a struct.

• Added support for the castxml epic version format 1.
  This is a new format which is partially not backward compatible with the
  legacy format. To use this new format, use the castxml_epic_version flag
  and set it to 1.
  This new format will allow to support new c++ features that were not recognized
  by gccxml and previous versions of castxml.

• Added support for elaborated type specifiers.
  A new elaborated_t type was added, with the related is_elaborated
  and remove_elaborated function.
  This is only available when setting the castxml_epic_version flag to 1 .

2. [Windows]

• Add Appveyor Windows build (castxml, VS 2013, python 3.5) and merge coverage
  results with Travis.

• Attributes defined as __thiscall__ are now ignored (tested with VS 2013).
  The __thiscall__ in some attributes will be removed too. If you still
  want to have access to these attributes, you can use the
  config.flags = ["f2"] option.

3. [Deprecations]

• Deprecated decl attribute from dependency_info_t.
  Use the declaration attribute instead.

• Deprecated the nss, free_fun and free_funs methods from the
  namespace_t class. Use the namespaces, free_function and
  free_functions methods instead.

• Deprecated the mem_fun, mem_funs, mem_oper, mem_opers,
  enum and enums methods from the scopedef_t class.
  Use the member_function, member_functions, member_operator,
  member_operators, enumeration and enumerations methods instead.

• Deprecated the mdecl_wrapper_t.to_list(). You can implement your own
  version of it if you really need it.

• Deprecated the declaration_not_found_t and multiple_declarations_found_t
  attributes from the scopedef_t class. These exceptions are available
  through the pygccxml.declarations package.

• Deprecated the decorated_name attribute from declaration_t.
  This was used by the binary parser, which have been removed in this version.
  As these attributes still could be used somewhere (but always returned None
  anyway), they need to go through a deprecation cycle first.

4. [Removals]

• Removed utils.xml_generator and utils.xml_output_version attributes.
  These two variables should not have made it into the public API. There is no
  deprecation cycle for these because of the complexity of keeping these
  module attributes around.
