*** ANNOUNCE: SWIG 1.3.39 (in progress) *** http://www.swig.org We're pleased to announce SWIG-1.3.39, the latest installment in the SWIG development effort. SWIG-1.3.39 includes a number of bug fixes and enhancements. 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-1.3.39.tar.gz A Windows version is also available at http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/swig/swigwin-1.3.39.zip 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, details at http://www.swig.org/mail.html. --- The SWIG Developers
