I'm sponsoring this fast track for Bruce Rothermal. It ports a popular
software development tool to Open Solaris.
A Minor Release Binding and Volatile Interface Taxonomy is requested.
A swig(1) man page is in the case directory.
The timer is set for 7 Aug 2008.

Summary
=======
The Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator - SWIG - is a software
development tool that connects programs written in C and C++ with a
variety of high-level programming languages. SWIG is used with
different types of languages including common scripting languages such
as Perl, PHP, Python, Tcl and Ruby. The list of supported languages also
includes non-scripting languages such as C#, Common Lisp (CLISP,
Allegro CL, CFFI, UFFI), Java, Lua, Modula-3, OCAML, Octave and R.
Also several interpreted and compiled Scheme implementations (Guile,
MzScheme, Chicken) are supported. SWIG is most commonly used to create
high-level interpreted or compiled programming environments, user
interfaces, and as a tool for testing and prototyping C/C++ software.
SWIG can also export its parse tree in the form of XML and Lisp
s-expressions. SWIG may be freely used, distributed, and modified for
commercial and non-commercial use.
SWIG 1.3.35 will be integrated into the SFW consolidation as part of
this proposal, and will be installed as SUNWswig.
