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.
