        * setup.py: Determine shp_dir correctly when run with bdist_rpm
        (dbf_macros): Remove a debug print

        * NEWS: Also mention the new (compared to 0.2) setup.py

        * MANIFEST.in: New. Define which files belong into a source
        distribution

2004-05-17  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * README: Update for new release

        * setup.py (dbf_macros): New. Return the preprocessor macros
        needed to compile the dbflib wrapper.  Determine whether
        DBFUpdateHeader is available and define the right value of
        HAVE_UPDATE_HEADER
        (extensions): Use dbf_macros for the dbflibc extension

        * dbflib_wrap.c, dbflib.py: Update from dbflib.i

        * dbflib.i (DBFInfo_commit): New. Implementation of the commit
        method.  This new indirection is necessary because we use the
        DBFUpdateHeader function now which is not available in shapelib <=
        1.2.10
        (DBFFile::commit): Use DBFInfo_commit as implementation
        (pragma __class__): New. Kludge to remove the commit method when
        the DBFUpdateHeader function isn't available
        (_have_commit): New. Helper for the pragma kludge.

2003-11-03  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * dbflib.i (do_read_attribute): New helper function for reading
        one attribute as a python object
        (DBFInfo_read_attribute): New. Implement the read_attribute method
        (DBFInfo_read_record): Use do_read_attribute to read the
        individual values
        (struct DBFFile): Add the read_attribute method.

        * dbflib_wrap.c, dbflib.py: Update from dbflib.i.

2003-09-29  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * dbflib.i: Add exception typemap for the add_field method. Fixes
        Thuban bug RT#1842

        * dbflib_wrap.c: Update from dbflib.i

        * testdbf.py: New. Test cases for the dbflib bindings based on the
        unittest module

2003-08-18  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * dbflib.i (DBFInfo_write_record): Use PySequence_Check instead of
        PyMapping_Check to distinguish between sequences and mappings
        because in Python 2.3, PyMapping_Check returns true for tuples and
        lists too.

2003-05-28  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * dbflib.i (DBFInfo_read_record): Read NULL fields as None unless
        it's a string field. DBF files can't distinguish between NULL and
        an empty string. Also, check the return value of
        DBFReadStringAttribute which may return NULL to indicate errors.

        * dbflib_wrap.c: Updated from dbflib.i

2002-08-27  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * dbflib.i: Raise an exception if open or create fails.

        * shapelib.i: Slightly better wording for the IOError exception
        that open and create may raise.

        * shapelib_wrap.c, dbflib_wrap.c: Regenerated

2002-08-22  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * dbflib.i (DBFFile::commit): New method for DBFCommit.

        * dbflib_wrap.c, dbflib.py: Update from dbflib.i

2002-08-15  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * shapelib.i, dbflib.i: Make the NOCHECK trick for the ShapeFile *
        check typemap work with SWIG 1.3.

        * shapelib_wrap.c, dbflib_wrap.c: Regenerate from the .i files.

2002-05-10  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * dbflib.i (DBFInfo_write_record): Only DECREF if the return value
        of PyMapping_GetItemString is not NULL. Also, test the return
        value of PySequence_GetItem
        (write_field): Remove some debug prints

        * dbflib_wrap.c: Updated from dbflib.i

2002-05-07  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * shptreemodule.c (SHPTreeType, initshptree): Set SHPTreeType's
        PyType_Type pointer in the init function.
        (shptree_methods): Use METH_VARARGS
        (shptree_dealloc): Use PyMem_DEL
        (shptree_find_shapes): Add a missing return

2002-05-07  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * shptreemodule.c: New file with a simple wrapper for shapelib's
        quadtree

        * setup.py: Some fixes to use explicit forward slashes as
        directory separators because of distutils.
        (extensions): Add the shptree module.

        * pytest.py (read_shapefile): Add some demo calls for the shptree
        module

        * pyshapelib_api.h (PyShapeLibAPI): Add some of the shptree
        functions.
        (PYSHAPELIB_IMPORT_API): New macro to import the API

        * shapelib.i (the_api): add the tree API functions.

        * shapelib_wrap.c: Updated from shapelib.i with SWIG.

2002-04-11  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * pyshapelib_api.h: New file with a limited C-level API for
        accessing shapilib functions from other Python-extensions.

        * shapelib.i: Export the C-level API with the c_api function.

        * shapelib.py, shapelib_wrap.c: Updated from shapelib.i. Still
        done with a very old version of SWIG, but it's probably not worth
        it to try it with a newer version as long as this still works.

2001-07-18  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * shapelib.i (open_ShapeFile): declare the swig prototype
        correctly with ShapeFile* as return type
        (ShapeFile.cobject): New method returning the SHPHandle* as a
        CObject

        * Makefile (VERSION): Increase to 0.3

        * setup.py, MANIFEST.in: New files for python distutils. 

2001-06-15  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * Makefile (VERSION): Increase to 0.2

2001-06-14  Bernhard Herzog  <[email protected]>

        * shapelib.i: Add the functions SHPTypeName as type_name and
        SHPPartTypeName as part_type_name
        (SHPObject_vertices):
        (build_vertex_list): Put building a list of vertices into the
        separate function build_vertex_list so that SHPObject_vertices can
        support SHPT_POINT too.

        * ChangeLog: create ChangeLog
