Still in development, but if you are interested into looking around, start with swigtypemaps.swg which is the head file. Also read the docs for %fragments in fragments.swg and follow the definitions in one of the supported languages: python, perl, ruby, tcl /* ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Internal typemap specializations * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- */ carrays.swg Implement the carrays.i library cdata.swg Implement the cdata.i library cmalloc.swg Implement the cmalloc.i library cpointer.swg Implement the cpointer.i library cstring.swg Implement the cstring.i library typemaps for char * cwstring.swg Implement the cstring.i library typemaps for wchar_t * exception.swg Implement the exception.i library implicit.swg Allow the use of implicit C++ constructors string.swg Typemaps for char * string wstring.swg Typemaps for wchar_t * string std_string.swg Typemaps for std::string std_wstring.swg Typemaps for std::wstring swigtype.swg Typemaps for the SWIGTYPE type void.swg Typemaps for the 'void' type enumint.swg Typemaps for enums treated as 'int' swigobject.swg Typemaps for the SWIG_Object as in PyObject, Tcl_Obj, etc. misctypes.swg Typemaps for miscellaneos types (size_t, ptrdiff_t, etc) ptrtypes.swg Typemaps for types with a 'ptr' behavior valtypes.swg Typemaps for 'by value' types inoutlist.swg IN/OUTPUT/INOUT typemaps, where the OUTPUT values are returned in a list primtypes.swg Common macros to manage primitive types (short,int,double,etc) cstrings.swg Common macros to implemented the cstring/cwstring libraries std_strings.swg Common macros to implemented the std::string/std::wstring typemaps strings.swg Common macros and typemaps for string and wstring (char *, wchar_t *) swigmacros.swg Basic macros fragments.swg Macros for fragment manipulations typemaps.swg The old typemaps.i library, not needed anymore
