Summary0012139: Wrapper support for factory methods
DescriptionCurrently, the wrapper generators only recognize a hard-coded list of factory methods that return new VTK objects, such as "New()" and "NewInstance()". The wrapper generators need to know which methods are factory methods, so that reference counts are maintained correctly - otherwise, the generated wrappers automatically increment the reference count of all returned VTK objects, leading to reference leaks for objects returned by factory methods.

This bug exists to keep track of such factory methods, so they can be updated appropriately, either by adding them to the hard-coded list, or by adding appropriate hints once a hinting mechanism is available.

 Okay, I've patched these two (commit 3923d7b7168432e399a9f3d07e1586ae045cc1a1).
Leaving the bug open until a hinting mechanism for this has been added to VTK.
