*** ANNOUNCE: SWIG 1.3.36 (24 June 2008) ***
|
|
|
|
http://www.swig.org
|
|
|
|
|
|
We're pleased to announce SWIG-1.3.36, the latest installment in the
|
|
SWIG development effort. SWIG-1.3.36 includes a number of bug fixes
|
|
and large number of enhancements throughout.
|
|
|
|
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,
|
|
Scheme (Guile, MzScheme, CHICKEN), Ocaml, Lua, Pike, C#, Modula-3, Octave, R,
|
|
Common Lisp (CLISP, Allegro CL, CFFI, UFFI). SWIG can also export its parse
|
|
tree in the form of XML and Lisp s-expressions. 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-1.3.36.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
A Windows version is also available at

|
Release numbers
|
|
---------------
|
|
With SWIG-1.3, we are adopting an odd/even version numbering scheme for
|
|
SWIG. Odd version numbers (1.3, 1.5, 1.7, etc...) are considered to
|
|
be development releases. Even numbers (1.4,1.6,1.8) are stable
|
|
releases. The current 1.3 effort is working to produce a stable 2.0
|
|
release. A stable 2.0 release will not be made until it can
|
|
accompanied by fully updated documentation. In the meantime, we will
|
|
continue to make periodic 1.3.x releases.
|
|
|
|
Please report problems with this release to the swig-dev mailing list,
|
|
