Jun 08, 2013    verify pygame.tests.test_utils.buftools.Exporter supports boolean arrays[HG 3270:0ecf23052547] Jun 08, 2013    fix a new buffer format bug involving an item count of 1[HG 962e528796ab] May 26, 2013    Add full Python new buffer protocol support to Pygame 1.9.2. In addition    Python level array interface support is added to several Pygame objects    and function. This changeset marks the end of a series of commits,    starting with revision 98e3a61592c1 on September 8, 2012.    Affected Pygame buffer exporting objects are BufferProxy, Surface    (through method get_buffer), Sound, PixelArray, and Color. Affected    importers are Sound, freetype.Font, BufferProxy, and the    pixelcopy module functions (array_to_surface, surface_to_array, map_array,    and make_surface).    Internally, Pygame has been rewritten to use the C Py_buffer to represent    external array objects. For Python 2.5 and earlier, which do not support    the new buffer protocol, Py_buffer is defined in pygame.h. The details    of translating between Py_buffer and the array interface are now found    in only on C file, base.c. Consequently, the base module exports several new    Pygame C api functions and a new exception: PgBuffer_AsArrayInterface,    PgBuffer_AsArrayStruct, PgObject_GetBuffer, PgBuffer_Release,    PgDict_AsBuffer, and PgExc_BufferError. These api additions also reduce    the amount of conditional compilation code required to support Python    versions which lack the new buffer protocol.    Finally, for proper testing, additions are made to the unit test framework.    A new extension module, pygame.newbuffer, adds new classes for importing    and exporting the new buffer interface at the Python level. It is built    conditionally. The new pygame.tests.test_utils.buftools Python module    implements the high level classes used in the actual unit tests. Also,    a new class in pygame.tests.test_utils.arrinter exports a C level    array interface from the Python level.[SVN 3062] Mar 30, 2011    Port scrap module to Python 3.x (merge with branches/port_scrap_py3).

Add deprecation warning for Numeric in surfarray and sndarray.[SVN 3003-3005] Feb 21-24, 2011    Enhance array support in pixelcopy methods. map_array now accepts    a three byte integer for target array. Surface.get_view now    allows a 2D view for 24 bitsized arrays, even though not accepted    by numpy. Color objects now export an array struct interface.    Various bug fixes for Python 3.1.[SVN 3000-3002] Feb 20, 2011    Merge the surface_buffer branch back into trunk.    1) Rename module _arraysurfarray to pixelcopy, which implements       array_to_surface (blit_surface), surface_to_array, and map_array.    2) Reimplement _numpysurfarray methods array2d, array3d, array_alpha,       array_colorkey, and map_surface to use new pixelcopy methods.    Module pixelcopy reimplements _numericsurfarray using generic    copy methods that accept objects exporting an array struct interface.    Along with Surface views, it moves almost all of the _numpysurfarray.py    functionality into C code. pixelcopy is also independent of NumPy,    so can work with other array like objects.[SVN 2983-2987] Feb 08, 2011    Merge the buffer branch back into trunk.    1) Extend pygame.mixer.Sound() to load samples from an object with       an array struct interface or the new buffer protocol. Exports       an array struct interface.    2) Update sndarray to use the new Sound features on numpy arrays,       removing the Python array manipulation code.    3) Add a new Type, pygame._view.View as a proxy for exporting an       array struct interface.    4) Add the pygame.Surface.get_view() method, which returns a View instance.       Besides creating views describing pixel2d, pixels3d, and pixels_alpha       arrays, new pixels_red, pixels_green, and pixels_blue views have been       added.    5) Update the pixels surfarray methods to use Surface.get_view() for       numpy arrays, removing the Python array manipulation code. Add new       methods returning red, green, and blue pixels arrays.[SVN 2977] Feb 06, 2011    Add Python 3.2 __pycache__ directories to ignore list.[SVN 2958] Jan 19, 2011    Add proof-of-concept pygame.freetype.render_raw method to show one way to      correctly calculate text size.[SVN 2957] Jan 14, 2011    Fix freetype.c build bug involving PyFREETYPE_C_API not defined.[SVN 2952-2954] Jan 05, 2011    [bug] GroupSingle memory leak posted in mailing list by Tobias Steinrücken.[SVN 2951] Nov 14, 2010    Reenable the camera module for linux.[SVN 2936, 2938, 2944] Sep 28, 2010    Pygame now builds for Python 3.2.

Thanks Lorenz Quack!Mar 5, 2008    [BUG] Stopped releasing GIL on png, and jpeg saving functions because        they do not seem to be thread safe.    [BUG] A work around for 8 bit samples being stereo reversed with SDL_mixer.        Also check the return value of Mix_SetPanning, and raise an        error on volume errors.    [BUG] Changed default chunk size for pygame.mixer to 1024*3.  Which is        the magic number which stops scratchy sounds on most systems.        However it does make sounds a bit laggier... it's best provided as        a config item for users.    Updated pygame.display.update() to release the GIL whilst doing things,        so other threads can do things whilst it's updating the screen.    Some comments to help Mac OSX people installing, and compiling pygame.        About bdist_mpkg in setup, and also fixed an exception message        to be nicer about requiring pyobjc.Mar 3, 2008    [BUG] Fixed up pygame.mask.from_surface, got color key, and perpixel alpha        modes reversed.    Also added better test to the mask test.        Also it wasn't testing pygame.mask.from_surface at all!    Added pygame.sprite.collide_mask to join the mask_* collision functions.        Started adding test for pygame.sprite.spritecollide.Feb 19, 2008    Added Surface.get_bounding_rect() method, which returns the smallest    rect for the surface, that contains visible (non-transparent) data.Feb 14, 2008    Updated constants GL_SWAP_CONTROL,GL_ACCELERATED_VISUAL,BUTTON_X1,BUTTON_X2    Added pygame.key.get_repeat to see how holding keys down repeats.  This is      the sister function of pygame.ket.set_repeat.    MacOSX, and Windows binaries now use latest SDL 1.2.13Feb 11, 2008    An example of using pygame with no windowing system.  Useful for webserver      scripts, or for little utilities.    Updated mac_scrap to pass some tests, and raise NotImplementedError      otherwise.    Further Windows build updates:      For MinGW/MSYS the build process now finds the MSYS and MinGW      directories automatically. gcc links to msvcr71.dll without      requiring changes to the gcc specs file. This makes the build      process GCC Version 4 ready. By default all DLLs are Win32 GUI,      but can be console. The build progams will run from either the      Windows or MSYS terminal.      Fixed a bug where DLLs were not installed in the package directory.      For Windows, everything now goes into the package directory.      build_deps.py renamed to msys_build_deps.py to avoid confusion.Jan 26, 2008    pygame.sndarray noew can change between Numeric and numpy using the      new methods pygame.sndarray.use_arraytype () and      pygame.sndarray.get_arraytypes ().Jan 24, 2008    Updated the configuration and build process under Windows. In       config_msys.py and config.py os.popen is replaced with the newer       subprocess.Popen so the MSYS will run. Calls to raw_input now       show the prompt on an MSYS console. In an MSYS build paths       written to Setup are now Windows paths for distutils. The hard       coded DLL file paths have been removed from setup.py.  It now       gets the paths from Setup. Consequently, setup.py is now VC/MinGW       agnostic.    Added build_deps.py, an all-in-one dependency builder for       Windows. Requires MinGW and MSYS.Jan 8, 2008    pygame.surfarray now can change between Numeric and numpy using the       new methods pygame.surfarray.use_arraytype () and       pygame.surfarray.get_arraytypes ().Jan 4, 2008    Removed Numeric compile time dependency.    Added numpy surface array support.Dec 31, 2007    New method pygame.get_sdl_byteorder () to get the SDL byte order.Dec 15, 2007    Mask can now get bounding rects of set bits.    pygame.transform can find edges in an image, get the average surface      of many surfaces and also threshold an image by color.Sep 1, 2007    Added get_buffer() methods to Surface, and Sound - which return a new     BufferProxy - which is a buffer interface only class.  Thanks Marcus!Aug 23, 2007    pygame.image.tostring changes from Brian Fisher.      RGBA_PREMULT & ARGB_PREMULT type to image.tostring (a very      nice thing for getting images into OpenGL)Aug 22, 2007    PixelArray from Marcus.  It's going to be a replacement for surfarray.    [BUG] Fixed some bugs in Surface with SRCALPHA and input validation.        Thanks Lenard Lindstrom and Brian Fisher.Aug 15, 2007    The sprite module has had some big changes from DR0ID.  It now has a     LayeredUpdates, and LayeredDirty groups.  For using layers when     rendering the sprites.  LayeredDirty is an alternative to     RenderUpdates that automatically finds the best display method     (either full screen updates, or dirty rect updates).  It's faster     if you have sprites that don't move.  Thanks DR0ID!    Added pygame.mask.from_surface which can make a Mask object from     a surface.  It's 128x faster than the python version!    pygame.movie bug fix. Thanks Lenard Lindstrom!Jun 25, 2007    Removed QNX support from scrap module. Thanks Marcus!    Added smoothscale(with MMX!) function from Richard GoedekenJun 27, 2007    Fixes from Marcus for ref counting bugs.    Also using METH_NOARGS for functions with no arguments.

Fixed the mask.set_at get_at functions to raise a nice exception.      Thanks piman!    surface.fill() now takes the same BLEND_ADD BLEND_SUB etc flags that      surface.blit() takes.  Which makes fade to white, and fade to black      type operates simple and fast.  Thanks Marcus!!    Added the GL_SWAP_CONTROL constant from SDL.  Thanks Eyal Lotem!    Added the new blitters from Marcus.  These speed up the blend functions      and the alpha blit function.    Added a -warnings flag to setup.py for extra warnings with gcc.    A fix from Marcus for the scrap module in X11.May 9, 2007    Windows image copy/paste is working for scrap.    Adding bitmask code from Ulf Ekström - for pixelperfect collision.

[BUG]Fix for parent init in sprite.GroupSingle. Thanks Alexander Sashnov.March 1, 2006    A cursors.py example from Kamilche.  Thanks!February 11, 2006    Changed the behaviour of Clock.tick to use SDL_Delay instead of a busy      loop.  Added a tick_busy_loop which uses the old behaviour.  This      is more consistent with what people think Clock.tick() will do.      That is, not use 100% cpu to get more accurate timing.    testsprite.py example, which is based off the testsprite.c in SDL      shows the performance of sprites, and is a good test.    Added gp2x package which contains some constants for the gp2x buttons.      This will be where gp2x specific functionality will live.January 12, 2006    Endian patch for set_at() from Ivo Danihelka.December 19, 2005    Updates for Overlay.
