<h2><a href="http://cens.ioc.ee/projects/f2py2e">F2PY</a> old news.</h2>

<dl>
    <dt> February 23, 2002
   <dd> Fixed a bug of incorrect shapes of multi-dimensional arrays
     when returning from Fortran routine (thanks to Eric for pointing
     this out).
     <code>F2PY_REPORT_ATEXIT</code> is disabled by default under Win32.
  <dt> February 14, 2002
  <dd> Introduced  <code>callprotoargument</code> statement so that
    proper prototypes can be specified (this fixes SEGFAULTs when
    wrapping C functions with <code>f2py</code>, see <a
    href="NEWS.txt">NEWS.txt</a> for more details). Updated for the
    latest <code>numpy_distutils</code>. Fixed few bugs.
  <dt> February 3, 2002
  <dd> Introduced <code>intent(overwrite),intent(out=name)</code>
    attributes, <code>callstatement C-expr;</code> statement, and
    reviewed reference counting in callback mechanism. Fixed bugs.
  <dt> January 18, 2002
  <dd> Introduced extra keyword argument <code>copy_#varname#=1</code>
    for <code>intent(copy)</code> variables,
    <code>-DF2PY_REPORT_ATEXIT</code> for reporting <code>f2py</code>
    performance,
    <code>has_column_major_storage</code> member function for generated
    modules, and <a href="http://dmalloc.com/">dmalloc</a> support.
  <dt> January 16, 2002
  <dd> BREAKING NEWS! Solved long lasted dilemma of wrapping
    multi-dimensional arrays where different
    storage orders in C and Fortran come into account. From now on
    this difference is dealt automatically by the f2py generated
    module and in a very efficient way. For example, the corresponding
    element A(i,j) of a Fortran array can be accessed in Python as
    A[i,j].
  <dt> January 13, 2002
  <dd> Fifth Public Release is coming soon..., a snapshot is available
    for download, now with updates.
  <dt> December 17, 2001
  <dd> <a href="Release-4.x.txt">Fourth Public Release</a>: Win32 support.
  <dd> Making <code>f2py2e</code> a module. Currently it has only one
    member function <code>run_main(comline_list)</code>.
  <dd> Removed command line arguments <code>-fix,-f90,-f77</code>
      and introduced many new ones. See <a href="NEWS.txt">NEWS.txt</a>.
  <dd> <code>intent(..)</code> statement with empty name list defines
    default <code>intent(..)</code> attribute for all routine arguments. 
  <dd> Refinements in Win32 support. Eric Jones has provided a f2py
    HOWTO for Windows users. See <a href="win32_notes.txt">win32_notes.txt</a>.
  <dd> Major rewrote of the code generator to achieve
       a higher quality of generated C/API modules (-Wall messages are
       considerably reduced, especially for callback functions).
  <dd> Many bugs were fixed.
  <dt> December 12, 2001
  <dd> Win32 support (thanks to Eric Jones and Tiffany Kamm). Minor
    cleanups and fixes.
  <dt> December 4, 2001
  <dd> <a href="Release-3.x.txt">Third Public Release</a>: <code>f2py</code> supports <code>distutils</code>. It can be
  installed with one and it generates <code>setup_modulename.py</code>
  to be used for building Python extension modules.
  <dd> Introduced <code>threadsafe</code>, <code>fortranname</code>,
    and <code>intent(c)</code> statements.
  <dt> August 13, 2001
  <dd> Changed the name FPIG to F2PY for avoiding confusion with project names.
  <dd> Updated <code>f2py</code> for use with Numeric version 20.x.
  <dt> January 12, 2001
  <dd> Example usages of <a href="pyfobj.html"><code>PyFortranObject</code></a>.
       Fixed bugs. Updated the 
      <a href="f2python9.html">Python 9 Conference paper</a> (F2PY paper).
  <dt> December 9, 2000
  <dd> Implemented support for <code>PARAMETER</code> statement.
  <dt> November 6, 2000
  <dd> Submitted a paper for 9th Python Conference (accepted). It is available in <a
      href="f2python9.html">html</a>, <a href="f2python9.pdf">PDF</a>,
       and <a href="f2python9.ps.gz">Gzipped PS</a> formats.
  <dt> September 17, 2000
  <dd> Support for F90/95 module data and routines. COMMON block
      wrapping is rewritten. New signature file syntax:
      <code>pythonmodule</code>. Signature files generated with
      f2py-2.264 or earlier, are incompatible (need replacement
      <code>module</code> with 
      <code>pythonmodule</code>).
  <dt> September 12, 2000
  <dd> The second public release of <code>f2py</code> is out. See <a
      href="Release-2.x.txt">Release notes</a>.
  <dt> September 11, 2000
  <dd> Now <code>f2py</code> supports wrapping Fortran 90/95 module routines
      (support for F90/95 module data coming soon)
  <dt> June 12, 2000
  <dd> Now <code>f2py</code> has a mailing list <a
href="#f2py-users">f2py-users</a> open for discussion.
