+<h3> Building a C# module </h3>
+SWIG will also generate code for accessing C/C++ code from C# using PInvoke. Here is an example building a C# module (shown for Linux, see the <a href="http://swig.cs.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?SwigFaq/SharedLibraries">SWIG Wiki Shared Libraries</a> page for help with other operating systems). It uses the open source <a href="http://www.southern-storm.com.au/portable_net.html">DotGNU Portable.NET</a> C# compiler which runs on most Unix systems, but works equally well using other C# compilers:
