setupModule() and adviseModule() will now issue warnings for most
questionable code structures and variable redefinitions that might not
work the way you'd expect or intend under module inheritance.
Added tests and documentation for adviseModule() API
Added a test command to setup.py that installs and then tests all of
TransWarp. (It saves me time running the unit tests while I'm writing
new code.)
Added warnings for detectable module-level modifications of mutables
in modules which are used for inheritances or advice. Added an API
function, configure(object, attr1=val, attr2=val,...) to safely
set attributes of mutables that might have been defined in a derived
module.
Removed Meta.ClassInit and __class_init__ support. Use metaclass
__init__ methods instead; see TW.Database.DataModel.RecordTypeMC
for one example of the conversion.
Added SEF.bindToParent(), SEF.bindToNames(), and SEF.bindToSelf()
descriptors, to allow more flexible component parameter bindings.
Improved key integrity checks in DataModel: Record objects now disallow
modification of key fields unless the old value is None, and cache
collisions between records with supposedly unique keys will result in an
AssertionError.
Added SET method (ala WarpCORE's set_X procedures) to
TW.Utils.MiniTable.
Added more docs to TW.Utils.Code, and removed iterFromEnd() method
from code objects. Added experimental nextSplit index to codeIndex
objects that does top-level block analysis to allow splitting a code
object into smaller routines.
Fixed the "reference to rebound class within another class" problem
with module inheritance, as reported by (who else?) Ulrich Eck. :)
Rewrote SEF "features" to use element.verbFeature() style methods
instead of element.feature.verb() style. UML/XMI/Querying code
still uses the old-style SEF framework, which is still available from
TW.SEF.FeatureObjects. See the docs of TW.SEF.Basic.FeatureMC
and TW.API.Meta.MethodExporter for details on how new-style methods
work.
Fixed misc. bugs in DataModel, LDAPModel, Connections, and
TW.Caching found by Ulrich Eck. Thanks Ulrich! Also, added a fix
to ensure that non-existent records are invalidated by
RecordType.getItem().
Added basic Specialist implementation to TW.SEF.Basic, and reverted
naming from TypeService and ITypeService to Specialist and
ISpecialist. Updated TW.SEF.Interfaces to reflect "self"-less
convention for documenting methods.
Dropped obsolete TW.Database.Records module.
Fixed the base class "rebind by name" bugs in module inheritance, and
updated the documentation to more clearly reflect what it is that
metaclass generation and module inheritance does and does not do. Added
test cases to prevent regression of the rebind-by-name problem.
The setup.py script features a new command, happy, which can be used
to generate the API reference docs, and this command runs as part of the
sdist command to build source distributions.
The API reference docs in the source distribution has been moved from
the doc directory to docs/html/reference.
Added CHANGES.txt file.
