==================================
----------------------------------
Changes and Additions
----------------------------------
- new feature: virtual subclasses. allows the user to create their own subclasses which are returned by ``PyNode``
- added ``v2009sp1`` and ``v2009sp1a`` to ``Version``
- changed ``MelGlobals.__getitem__`` to raise a KeyError on missing global, instead of a typeError
- ``util.path`` now supports regular expression filtering in addition to globs.
- moved ``moduleDir()`` from ``util`` to ``mayahook`` since it is explicitly for pymel.
- ensured that all default plugins are loaded when creating the api cache so that we can avoid calculating those each time the plugins are loaded
- added a new `errors` flag to recurseMayaScriptPath for controlling how to handle directory walking errors: warn or ignore
- moved ``pwarnings`` to ensure that ``pymel.util`` is completely separated from maya
- adding new sphinx documentation. modifying source docstrings where necessary.
- setParent now allows ``None`` arg to specify world parent
- adopted a standard setuptools-compliant package layout, with pymel as a subdirectory of the top level
- forced line numbers on for ``Mel.eval``
- changed ipymel to use $MAYA_LOCATION to find mayapy instead of /usr/bin/env
- changed datatypes examples to demonstrate the necessity to include a namespace
- added ``groupname``, ``get_groupname``, and ``chgrp`` to ``Path`` class for dealing with unix groups as strings instead of as gid's
- added alias ``path.Path`` for ``path.path`` so as to follow PEP8
- added a new option to ``pymel.conf`` to allow disabling of mel initialization in standalone mode.
- added ability to set logger verbosity using PYMEL_LOGLEVEL environment variable. great for quick testing.
----------------------------------
Bugfixes
----------------------------------
- fixed a bug in ``undoInfo()``
- fixed a bug that was breaking ``mel2py``
- fixed a bug with logging that was locking it to INFO level. INFO is now the default, but it can be properly changed in ``pymel.conf``
- fixed input casting of ``datatypes.Time``
- bug fixes in error handling within path class
- fixed issue 65: ``DependencyNode.listAttr()`` broken
- made sure ``NameParse`` objects are stringified before fed to ``MFnDependencyNode.findPlug()``
- added a few more reserved types so as to avoid creating them, which can lead to crashes on some setups
- fixed issue 66 where nodes could be created twice when using PEP8 style class instantiation: ``pm.Locator``
- ``path.walk*`` methods now properly prune all directories below those that do not match the supplied patterns
- maya bug workaround: changed pluginLoaded callback to API-based for 2009 and later
- fixed bug in ``hasAttr()``
- removed bug in ``arrays.dot`` where incorrect duplicate definition was taking precedence
- fixed bug in ``PyNode.__ne__()`` when comparing DagNodes to DependNodes
- fixed Issue 72: cannot select lists of components
- fixed bug with startup on windows (backslashes not escaped)
- fix for ``Component('pCube1.vtx[3]')``
- fix for nurbsCurveCV('nurbsCircle1') failing
- pythonToMel and Mel now properly convert ``datatypes.Vectors`` to mel vectors ( <<0,0,0>> ). ``MelGlobals`` now returns ``datatypes.Vectors``
- fixed bug with ``duplicate(addShape=1)``
- fixed a bug where selectionSets can't be selected
- fixed a bug with ``sets()`` when it returns lists
- fixed issue 76, where non-unique joint names were returned by ``pymel.joint`` and thus were unsuccessfully cast to ``nodetypes.Joint``
- fixed issue 80, regading incorrect association of ``nodetypes.File`` with ``cmds.file.``
- fixed a bug in ``connectAttr()`` that was preventing connection errors from being raised when the force flag was used
