allow keyword arguments for function_class methods
and functions. process_dict_convert_to_instance() is added to
mimic the behavior of the process_list_convert_to_instance()
Derived methods in gnucash_core.py like raise_backend_errors_after_call
get modified to accept being called with keyword args.
Also adds some docstrings.
make gnc_path_get_localedir() and GETTEXT_PACKAGE available for python
to access locales. Import gettext module to provide _ as translator
method. Provide null _-method returning english text in case of missing gettext.
Make a lot of messages translatable by adding _-method. Include python
files to create .pot-files.
There are more, but these are most common ones.
There are also a number of urls that don't behave well when https, so those are skipped
At some point I have also started marking non-working URLs as [DEAD LINK], though
that's not a full coverage.
The last three commits fix the main part of Bug 796137. An inconvenience
with GSList remains as for the moment qof_query_add_boolean_match only
accepts bytes as parameter and no strings. This still needs to be fixed.
Change all instances of bugzilla.gnome.org to bugs.gnucash.org, reflecting
our migration to a self-hosted bug tracker.
Inform the Translation Project Coordinator at release that this affects
translatable strings and that all message catalogs have been updated.
This switches swig to use python 3 specific features when generating the
bindings, switches the build over to python 3 and makes the neccesary
python 2 to 3 conversions in the bindings and tests.
Using the function gnc_price_create and book as a parameter, it is possible to create the new GncPrice object. This will remove the necessity of cloning the prices from existing ones in Python scripts.
Where possible in the Python SWIG code use the builtin SWIG conversion
code over custom code. This ensures appropriate overflow/type checking.
With this I have enabled GncNumeric from longs and tested for correct
overflow handling.
Note: This could be extended to GUILE but I am not familiar enought to
safely enable this.
At current the Python GncNumeric has issues with type conversion eg.
* GncNumeric(1.3) = 1.00
* GncNumeric("1.3") is OK but any future methods error
This behaviour was relied on for the Account tests to pass as it used
GncNumeric(0.5) == GncNumeric(1.0) but this is not what many users would
expect.
This fix alows GncNumeric to be constructed from a (int, int)
numerator/denominator pair or int/float/str where double_to_gnc_numeric
and string_to_gnc_numeric from C is used.
It is split into
- /libgnucash (for the non-gui bits)
- /gnucash (for the gui)
- /common (misc source files used by both)
- /bindings (currently only holds python bindings)
This is the first step in restructuring the code. It will need much
more fine tuning later on.
