coverage report through coveralls.io .
Change summary since 4.4.0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Enhancements
* Test files cleanups (#108, #111, #121)
* Add automatic coverage reports (#110, #122)
* Removed obsolete code (#109, #112, #113)
* Increased test coverage (#114, #118)
* Python 3 support (#115). Thanks Yves Delley.
* Allow setting and resetting the global adaptation manager (#145)
* Various documentation improvements (#132, #133, #148, #154).
Changes
* The Int trait type now accepts Python ints *and* Python longs, as well as
instances of any Python type that implements the `__index__` method.
Previously, long instances were not accepted. (#104, #123).
Fixes
* Fix crash when trying to validate a property that has been deleted. (#138)
* Fix clearing exception when raising a TraitError (#119)
* Fix automatic adaptation when assigning to List trait (#147)
* Fix some ctraits refcounting and exception clearing bugs (#48). Thanks Yves
Delley.
Release 4.4.0
-------------
The major new feature in this release is a new adaptation mechanism in the
``traits.adaptation`` package. The new mechanism is intended to replace the
older traits.protocols package. Code written against ``traits.protocols`` will
continue to work, although the ``traits.protocols`` API has been deprecated,
and a warning will be logged on first use of ``traits.protocols``. See the
'Advanced Topics' section of the user manual for more details.
The release also includes improved support for using Cython with `HasTraits`
classes, some new helper utilities for writing unit tests for Traits events,
and a variety of bug fixes, stability enhancements, and internal code
improvements.
Change summary since 4.3.0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New features
* The adaptation mechanism in Traits, formerly based on the 'traits.protocols'
package, has been replaced with the more robust 'traits.adaptation'
package. (#51)
* Added utility function for importing symbols (name, classes, functions)
by name: 'traits.util.api.import_symbol'. (#51)
* Users can set a global tracer, which receives all traits change events:
`traits.trait_notifiers.set_change_event_tracers`. (#79)
Enhancements
* Update benchmark script. (#54)
* traits.util.deprecated: use module logger instead of root logger. (#59)
* Provide an informative message in AdaptationError. (#62)
* Allow HasTraits classes to be cythonized. (#73)
* Improve tests for cythonization support. (#75)
* Extending various trait testing helpers (#53)
Refactoring
* The Traits notification code has been reworked to remove code duplication,
and test coverage of that code has been significantly improved. (#79)
Fixes
* Fix race condition when removing a traits listener. (#57)
* Fix ugly interaction between DelegatesTo change handlers, dynamic change
handlers and two levels of dynamic intialization. (#63)
* Use a NullHandler for all 'traits' loggers. (#64)
* Fix race condition in TraitChangeNotifyWrapper.listener_deleted (#66)
* Fix leaking notifiers. (#68)
* Fix failing special instance trait events. (#78)
* Fix hiding KeyError exception inside trait default initialize method.
(#81)
* Fix Adapter object initialization. (#93)
* Fix cyclic garbage arising from use of the WeakRef trait type. (#95)
* `TraitSetObject.copy` now returns a plain rather than an
uninitialized `TraitSetObject` instance. (#97)
* Fix cyclic garbage arising from dynamic trait change handlers. (#101)
