- Make it work on Python 2.5 and 64-bit platforms
pyorbit-2.13.1: 11-December-2005
- Add support for CORBA async calls
pyorbit-2.13.0: 4-December-2005
- Add thread safety; don't block threads on ORB.run or remote calls
- Allow creating custom POAs
- Support POA thread policies and ORBit thread hints

pyorbit-2.0.1: 4-October-2004
- x86_64 build fixes (Mark McLoughlin)
- export pyorbit versions (Gustavo)
- Python 2.4 fixes (James)
- Bug fixes (James, Bowin Owens)
pyorbit-2.0.0: 1-September-2003
- roll version number over to 2.0
- get rid of some unused code in the method call marshaller.
pyorbit-1.99.7: 24-August-2003
- fix a problem with handling of exceptions that was uncovered
by Python 2.3.
- disable assigning to unknown attributes on stub instances. Saves
a little memory too.
- add CORBA.ORB.work_pending() and CORBA.ORB.perform_work() methods.
pyorbit-1.99.6: 31-July-2003
- clean up base class list when building client stubs. This
is needed in order for the stubs to work with Python 2.3.
- fix some possible segfaults if the argument names are
missing in the IInterface structures, which occurs when
using ORBit.load_file().
pyorbit-1.99.5: 16-July-2003
- Work with latest HEAD branch (ORBit2 2.7.x).
- allow importing of CORBA or PortableServer without first
importing ORBit. This gives better compatibility with
standard CORBA mapping.
- None is not a valid string/wstring value.
- accept strings for sequence<octet>.
pyorbit-1.99.4: 23-March-2003
- support generation of stubs at runtime from IDL files using
the imodule service found in ORBit2 2.6.
- fix marshalling of "long long" and "unsigned long long"
values.
- fix compilation problem with ORBit2 HEAD branch (2.7.x).
pyorbit-1.99.3: 27-December-2002
- upgrade to latest auto tools (autoconf-2.57, automake-1.7.2,
libtool-1.4.3).
- add CORBA.TC_* constants.
- remove messages printed when creating a stub module.
pyorbit-1.99.2: 16-November-2002
- Require ORBit2 >= 2.4.4.
- make sure servants start up in a valid state by moving
initialisation to tp_new rather than tp_init.
- add support for ORBit-Python "delegate" style servants.
- improve handling of unknown exceptions (they are usually
caused by errors in the program, so print a stack trace).
- marshalling fixes (handle NULL strings, and sequences
embedded in complex types).
- change semantics of pycorba_object_new() so that it
duplicates the object reference.
- prevent subclassing of various types that shouldn't be
subclassed.
- wrap enumeration values as int subclasses such that repr()
will return the string version of the enum.
- beginning of fixed<d,s> wrapper. Pretty useless at the
moment, since support in ORBit2 is broken.
- add a spec file.
pyorbit-1.99.1: 30-October-2002
- add PortableServer bindings (Servant and POA).
- escape names that conflict with Python keywords.
- move tests to tests/ subdirectory, and add a test server.
- change union members _d and _v to slots.
- install a pyorbit.h header that can be used by other Python
packages to interoperate with pyorbit.
- put un-namespaced types in the _GlobalIDL module (like
omniORBpy does).
- add some warnings to ORBit.load_typelib() to try and
identify broken typelibs.
- add a test to demonstrate ability for in process C code to
invoke operations on Python objects and vice versa.
pyorbit-1.99.0: 20-October-2002
- initial release.
- basic support for most client side operations.
