- Update to 3.10.1
## Bugfixes
* Fix version constraints for the numpy runtime requirements
* (#1204).
* For a mistake it didn't allow to use PyTables with numpy 2.x.
* Fix compatibility with PyPy (:issue:1205), Thanks to Michał
Górny.
## Improvements
* Upstream: Enforce numpy >= 2 as build constraint (see
discussion in #1200). -- not enforced in openSUSE
* Use tuple of plain ints for chunk info coordinates. Thanks to
Ivan Vilata-i-Balaguer.
* Enable faulthandler in tables.tests.test_all. Thanks to Eric
Larson.
- Release 3.10.0
* New direct chunking API which allows access to raw chunk data
skipping the HDF5 filter pipeline (cutting overhead, see
"Optimization tips" in User's Guide), as well as querying chunk
information (#1187). Thanks to Ivan Vilata and Francesc Alted.
This development was funded by a NumFOCUS grant.
## Improvements
* This release is finally compatible with NumPy 2 with wheels
being built against it so that they are still binary-compatible
with NumPy 1 installations (#1176, #1183, #1184, #1192, #1195,
#1160, #1172, #1185). NumPy >= 1.20 is required now. Thanks to
Antonio Valentino, Maximilian Linhoff and Eric Larson.
* Fix compatibility with Python 3.13 (#1166), Python >= 3.10
required. Cython 3.0.10 is required for building. Thanks to
Antonio Valentino.
* Add type hints to atom.py (#1079). This also narrows some
types, only allowing bytes to be stored in VLStringAtom and
only str in VLUnicodeAtom. Thanks to Nils Carlson.
* Add type hints to (hopefully) the complete PyTables API (#1119,
#1120, #1121, #1123, #1124, #1125, #1125, #1126, #1128, #1129,
#1130, #1131, #1132, #1133, #1135, #1136, #1137, #1138, #1139,
#1140, #1141, #1142, #1143, #1145, #1146, #1147, #1148, #1150,
#1151, #1152). Thanks to Ko Stehner.
* Reduce impact of CPU information gathering by caching in local
file (#1091, #1118, #1081). Thanks to Antti Mäkinen and
Maximilian Linhoff.
## Bugfixes
* Fix typos and may other language errors in docstrings (#1122).
Thanks to Ko Stehner.
* Fix Blosc2 filter not setting dparams.schunk on decompression
(#1110 and #1109). Thanks to Tom Birch.
* Fix using B2ND optimizations when Blosc2 is not the only
enabled filter; move Fletcher32 compression to end of pipeline
when enabled (#1191 and #1162). Thanks to Ivan Vilata and Alex
Laslavic.
* Fix broken internal passing of createparents argument in
Leaf.copy (#1127 and #1125). Thanks to Ko Stehner.
* Re-enable relative paths in ExternalLink class (#1095). Thanks
to erikdl-zeiss.
* Fix using prefix in heavy tests methods of test_queries
(#1169). Thanks to Miro Hrončok.
* Fix TypeError when computing Blosc2 search paths with missing
library (#1188 and #1100). Thanks to martinowitsch, Padraic
Calpin and Eric Larson.
* Avoid overflow RuntimeWarning on NumPy expectedrows value
(#1010). Thanks to wony-zheng and Ivan Vilata.
## Other changes
* Assorted fixes to b2nd benchmark, with new results. Thanks to
Ivan Vilata.
* Point users to example code to handle "Selection lists cannot
have repeated values" exception (#1161 and #1149). Thanks to
Joshua Albert.
* Remove unused getLibrary C code. Thanks to Antonio Valentino.
