Release Notes

python-cffi/cffi (cffi)

v1.17.1

Compare Source

• Fix failing distutils.msvc9compiler imports under Windows (#​118).
• ffibuilder.emit_python_code() and ffibuiler.emit_c_code() accept file-like objects (#​115).
• ffiplatform calls are bypassed by ffibuilder.emit_python_code() and ffibuilder.emit_c_code() (#​81).

Full Changelog: python-cffi/cffi@v1.17.0...v1.17.1

v1.17.0

Compare Source

• Add support for Python 3.13.
  • Free-threaded CPython builds (i.e. python3.13t and the 3.13t ABI) are not currently supported.
• In API mode, when you get a function from a C library by writing
  fn = lib.myfunc, you get an object of a special type for performance
  reasons, instead of a <cdata 'C-function-type'>. Before version 1.17
  you could only call such objects. You could write
  ffi.addressof(lib, "myfunc") in order to get a real <cdata> object,
  based on the idea that in these cases in C you'd usually write &myfunc
  instead of myfunc. In version 1.17, the special object
  lib.myfunc can now be passed in many places where CFFI expects
  a regular <cdata> object. For example, you can now pass
  it as a callback to a C function call, or write it inside a C
  structure field of the correct pointer-to-function type, or use
  ffi.cast() or ffi.typeof() on it.

v1.16.0

Compare Source

• Add support for Python 3.12. With the removal of distutils from Python 3.12, projects
  using CFFI features that depend on distutils at runtime must add a dependency on
  setuptools to function under Python 3.12+. CFFI does not declare a runtime setuptools
  requirement to avoid an unnecessary dependency for projects that do not require it.
• Drop support for end-of-life Python versions (2.7, 3.6, 3.7).
• Add support for PEP517 builds; setuptools is now a required build dependency.
• Declare python_requires metadata for Python 3.8+. This allows unsupported Pythons
  to continue using previously released sdists and wheels.
• Move project source under src/; a more standard layout that also enables CI to more easily
  catch packaging errors.

v1.15.1

Compare Source

(retroactive GitHub release for current stable version 1.15.1)

• If you call ffi.embedding_api() but don't write any extern "Python" function there, then the resulting C code would fail an assert. Fixed.
• Updated Windows/arm64 embedded libffi static lib to v3.4.2, and scripted to ease future updates (thanks Niyas Sait!)

Hi @red-hat-konflux[bot]. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a red-hat-data-services member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes-sigs/prow repository.
