Hi all,
We have released cffi 0.8.2, mainly because the older setup.py fails
to execute with the newer versions of setuptools. It also contains a
few small improvements and fixes. The main new features are:
* ABI support for packed structures (see "packed" in the documentation).
* if you have a cffi buffer, `bytes(buf)` and `str(buf)` have subtly
changed their meaning (again for a Python 2 - Python 3 compatibility
issue).
* fixed a number of small cases, most importantly `ffi.dlopen(None)`
to behave like `ctypes.CDLL(None)` and not `ctypes.CDLL("c")`.
A bientôt,
Armin.

* fixed a number of small cases, most importantly `ffi.dlopen(None)`
to behave like `ctypes.CDLL(None)` and not `ctypes.CDLL("c")`.
A bientôt,
