+The DOH types are all typedefined to void.
+Consequently, it is impossible for debuggers to extract any information about DOH objects.
+Most debuggers will be able to display useful variable information when an object is cast to the appropriate type.
+Below are some tips for displaying some of the DOH objects.
+Be sure to compile with compiler optimisations turned off before attempting the casts shown in a debugger window else they are unlikely to work.
+Even displaying the underlying string in a String* doesn't work straight off in all debuggers due to the multiple definition of String as a struct and a void.

-The information that used to live here has moved to the user
-documentation, file Guile.html.
+Below are a list of common SWIG types.
+With each is the cast that can be used in the debugger to extract the underlying type information and the underlying char * string.
