Talk:SWIG

I reworked the text of this page. I removed the link to the SwigDirectives page, since it didn't exist and I see no reason to create one in wikipedia. The SWIG documentation is very extensive and the SWIG Wiki can be used for any comments people want to make. Why was that there? The history implies that it existed at some point. -- Wuzzeb 05:38, 7 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I think there are problems with the "How does it work" section, particularly this: "...a small number of directives are added to the program's header files...". It is not necessary to modify existing source code (e.g. "header files") to use SWIG, in fact from what I've seen, SWIG is normally used by way of a separate 'interface' file which typically instructs SWIG to read the existing header files.
