We're pleased to announce SWIG 1.3.16, the latest installment in the
SWIG development effort. SWIG-1.3.16 is mostly a bug-fix release to
SWIG-1.3.15.
We're pleased to announce SWIG 1.3.18, the latest installment in the
SWIG development effort. SWIG-1.3.18 includes a number of bug fixes,
several new language modules, an improved build environment, and
many other exciting new features.
What is SWIG?
-------------
SWIG is a software development tool that reads C/C++ header files and
generates the wrapper code needed to make C and C++ code accessible
from other languages including Perl, Python, Tcl, Ruby, PHP, Java,
Guile, Mzscheme, and Ocaml. Major applications of SWIG include
generation of scripting language extension modules, rapid prototyping,
testing, and user interface development for large C/C++ systems.
Guile, Mzscheme, Ocaml, Chicken Scheme, and C#. Major applications of
SWIG include generation of scripting language extension modules, rapid
prototyping, testing, and user interface development for large C/C++
systems.
Availability:
-------------
The release is available for download on Sourceforge at
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/swig/swig-1.3.16.tar.gz
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/swig/swig-1.3.18.tar.gz
Within the next day, a Windows version will also be made available at
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/swig/swigwin-1.3.16.zip
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/swig/swigwin-1.3.18.zip
New Features:
-------------
Several new language modules have been added, including support for C#
and Chicken Scheme. In addition, Mark's polymorphism patch has been
incorporated. This gives certain modules the ability to extend C++
classes with virtual methods implemented the target language
itself---an especially useful addition if you are working with code
that involves callbacks. Finally, a number of minor patches, bug fixes, and
improvements have been made.
