.TH swig 1 "June 23\, 1997" "SWIG 1.1" "Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator"
.SH NAME
swig - produce scripting language wrapper code from an interface specification file
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B swig [
.I options
] file.i
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I swig
generates wrapper code needed to integrate C,C++, and Objective-C functions
and variables with Tcl, Perl, Python, and Guile and produces
documentation. Consult the
.I SWIG
user manual for more details.

.SH INTERFACE FILES
The interface file is specified on the
.I swig
command line as the file to operate on. You may specify only
one file on the command line. (See the
.I include
directive in the user\'s manual for ways around this.)
.PP
As input, an interface file (typically with a .i suffix) must
be given. A minimal specification of this file is as follows:
.PP
%module mymodule
%{
/* Include your headers here */
%}
/* List variables and function prototypes in ANSI C syntax */
.PP
For example :
.PP
%module example
%{
#include "my_header.h"
%}
.PP
extern int My_variable;
extern double foo(double a, double b);
extern void bar(char *);
.PP
.SH OUTPUT
Given the input "file.i". swig produces an output file
called "file_wrap.c" (You can override this using the -o
option). This file should be compiled with
the C/C++ compiler and linked with the rest of your code.
