What's Changed

• The main improvement here is continued support for the moveit crate, and its ability to move/copy construct non-trivial C++ objects around on the Rust stack. The support is still not finished - you still can't, for instance, pass such objects by value into existing C++ functions - but it's further on. In this version you can move non-trivial C++ objects around on the Rust stack, make copies etc. subject to the availability of move/copy constructors on the C++ side.
  • Implement CopyNew trait in #752
  • Implement MoveNew trait in #752
  • Implement Drop trait in #758. (Previously stack-allocated C++ objects didn't get their destructors called)
  • Bump up to a new version of moveit which allows us to emplace into UniquePtr (#757). Note that there is a known bug/limitation here, #772
  • Correctly identify deleted move constructors in #738
  • Hopefully (and this is the big big) identify and populate all the implicit constructors that C++ standards specify - #760. This is error-prone so if there are problems, this is probably why, and a new block_constructors! directive is added on the assumption that I've messed something up here and a workaround is needed.
• Another significant improvement is that all the autogenerated type names for AutocxxConcrete types are now more descriptive by @adetaylor in #764
• Correctly spot types which are abstract due to private pure virtual functions by @adetaylor in #750
• Add cxx to dependencies in Readme example by @psmit in #741
• Update s2geometry URI by @adetaylor in #746
• Regularize bindgen annotations. by @adetaylor in #734. This is a step towards potentially being able to upstream some of these annotations into the upstream bindgen, though it's a long way off still
• A couple of fixes for the autocxx-reduce pipeline by @adetaylor in #747, #749
• Fixing comments in non-trivial C++ types example. by @adetaylor in #748
• Fixing some garbage collection issues in #759
• Some miscellaneous test changes
  • Add additional test for issue 486. by @adetaylor in #736, #737
  • Switch test logging dependencies due to deprecation. by @adetaylor in #740

New Contributors

• @psmit made their first contribution in #741
