v0.7.x

[cschwan]

This is the patch branch for versions 0.7.x. Do not merge this branch into master!

[felixhekhorn]

let me repeat again what I was asking in #308

---

also note that in v0.7.4 the error is slightly different:

return self.raw.convolute_with_two(
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
TypeError: argument 'bin_indices': type mismatch:
 from=int64, to=uint64

do we want to keep fixing former version, or not?

[cschwan]

I'm not sure I understand this: is 0.7.x broken in any way?

the bin_indices argument of convolute_with_* is (or seems to be) broken - but broken in a different way then master #308

[cschwan]

I wouldn't say it's broken, it's just (from the POV of Python) unexpectedly strict. You must pass a numpy array and the types must be unsigned integers. I suppose that really is unnecessarily strict, and we should allow more flexibility. However, this would probably be a breaking change, so let's not change anything for 0.7.x.

[cschwan]

This branch is outdated; before we make another 0.7.x release, we should first merge the following commits (probably):

1. e6a2dea
2. 49e1c08
3. a3a0804
4. 76a1e89
