SWIG is a software development tool that connects programs written in
C and C++ with a variety of high-level programming languages. SWIG is
primarily used with common scripting languages such as Perl, Python,
Tcl/Tk, Ruby, Guile and MzScheme, however the list of supported
languages also includes non-scripting languages such as Java and
OCAML. SWIG is most commonly used to create high-level interpreted
programming environments, user interfaces, and as a tool for testing
and prototyping C/C++ software. SWIG may be freely used, distributed,
and modified for commercial and noncommercial use.
