🚀 > ⚠️ This release will be the last one supporting Python 2 and non-.NET-Standard builds.
🐎 This version improves performance on benchmarks significantly compared to 2.3 and includes various additions and improvements to the library.
➕ Added
- 🏗 Automatic NuGet package generation in appveyor and local builds
- Function that sets
Py_NoSiteFlag to 1.
- 👌 Support for Jetson Nano.
- Support for
__len__ for .NET classes that implement ICollection
PyExport attribute to hide .NET types from PythonPythonException.Format method to format exceptions the same as
traceback.format_exceptionRuntime.None to be able to pass None as parameter into Python from .NETPyObject.IsNone() to check if a Python object is None in .NET.- 👌 Support for Python 3.8
- Codecs as the designated way to handle automatic conversions between
.NET and Python types
🔄 Changed
- ➕ Added argument types information to "No method matches given arguments" message
- 🚚 Moved wheel import in setup.py inside of a try/except to prevent pip collection failures
- Removes
PyLong_GetMax and PyClass_New when targetting Python3
- 👌 Improved performance of calls from Python to C#
- ➕ Added support for converting python iterators to C# arrays
- 🔄 Changed usage of the obsolete function
GetDelegateForFunctionPointer(IntPtr, Type) to
GetDelegateForFunctionPointer<TDelegate>(IntPtr)
- When calling C# from Python, enable passing argument of any type to a
parameter of C# type object by wrapping it into PyObject instance.
([#881][i881])
- ➕ Added support for kwarg parameters when calling .NET methods from Python
- 🔄 Changed method for finding MSBuild using vswhere
- Reworked
Finalizer. Now objects drop into its queue upon finalization,
which is periodically drained when new objects are created.
- Marked
Runtime.OperatingSystemName and Runtime.MachineName as
Obsolete, should never have been public in the first place. They also
don't necessarily return a result that matches the platform module's.
- 📜 Unconditionally depend on
pycparser for the interop module generation
🛠 Fixed
- 🛠 Fixed runtime that fails loading when using pythonnet in an environment
together with Nuitka
- 🛠 Fixes bug where delegates get casts (dotnetcore)
- Determine size of interpreter longs at runtime
- Handling exceptions ocurred in ModuleObject's getattribute
- Fill
__classcell__ correctly for Python subclasses of .NET types
- 🛠 Fixed issue with params methods that are not passed an array.
- 👉 Use UTF8 to encode strings passed to
PyRun_String on Python 3
