            [Lua] #959 - Fix Visual Studio C4244 conversion warnings in Lua wrappers.

2017-04-21: tamuratak
            [Ruby] #964 - Add shared_ptr director typemaps.

2017-04-20: wsfulton
            [Ruby] #586, #935 Add assert for invalid NULL type parameter when calling SWIG_Ruby_NewPointerObj.

2017-04-20: tamuratak
            [Ruby] #930, #937 - Fix containers of std::shared_ptr.
            Upcasting, const types (eg vector<shared_ptr<const T>>) and NULL/nullptr support added.

2017-04-12: smarchetto
            [Scilab] New parameter targetversion to specify the Scilab target version (5, 6, ..) for code generation
            With Scilab 6 target specified, identifier names truncation is disabled (no longer necessary)

2017-02-29: tamuratak
            [Ruby] #917 - Add Enumerable module to all container class wrappers. It was missing
            for std::list, std::multiset, std::unordered_multiset and std::unordered_map.

2017-03-24: tamuratak
            [Ruby] Fix #939 - Wrapping std::vector<bool> fix due to incorrect null checks
            on VALUE obj.

2017-03-17: wsfulton
            [Go] Fix handling of typedef'd function pointers and typedef'd member function pointers
            such as:

              typedef int (*FnPtr_td)(int, int);
              int do_op(int x, int y, FnPtr_td op);

2017-03-16: wsfulton
            Add support for member const function pointers such as:

              int fn(short (Funcs::* parm)(bool)) const;

            Also fix parsing of references/pointers and qualifiers to member
            pointers such as:

              int fn(short (Funcs::* const parm)(bool));
              int fn(short (Funcs::* & parm)(bool));

2017-03-10: wsfulton
            Extend C++11 alternate function syntax parsing to support const and noexcept, such as:

              auto sum1(int x, int y) const -> int { return x + y; }
              auto sum2(int x, int y) noexcept -> int { return x + y; }

2017-02-27: assambar
            [C++11] Extend parser to support throw specifier in combination
            with override and/or final.

2017-02-10: tamuratak
            [Ruby] #883 - Add support for C++11 hash tables:
              std::unordered_map
              std::unordered_set
              std::unordered_multimap
              std::unordered_multiset

2017-02-08: jcsharp
            [C#] #887 Improve std::vector<T> wrapper constructors -
            Replace constructor taking ICollection with IEnumerable and also add IEnumerable<T>
            constructor to avoid the boxing and unboxing overhead of the original constructor,
            when the type parameter is a value type.
