   1 SWIG 1.3 Patches
   2 ================
   3
   4 This directory holds a set of patches for the CVS version of SWIG that
   5 are required if you wish to use SWIG for wxPython development, or for
   6 building your own extension modules that need to interface with
   7 wxPython.  These have been submitted to SWIG's SourceForge patch
   8 tracker, so hopefully they will get incorporated into the main SWIG
   9 source tree soon.

  15 swig.python-docstring.patch  Adds "autodoc" and "docstring" features.
  16                              See SF Patch #883402
  17
  18                              Also changes the "addtofunc" feature to
  19                              "pythonappend" and also adds a
  20                              "pythonprepend" feature that prepends
  21                              pythoncode to the begining of a
  22                              SWIG-generated proxy function or method.
  23
  24 swig.xmlout.patch            Fixes a couple problems in the XML output
  25                              of SWIG: an extra "/>" was removed and
  26                              newlines in attribute values were changed
  27                              to the #10; entity reference so they will
  28                              be preserved by parsers.
  29
  30                              Also, added options for dumping or
  31                              writing to a file the XML of the parse
  32                              tree *after* other language modules have
  33                              been run (previously you could only do
  34                              the XML output *instead of* a regular
  35                              language module.)
  36                              See SF Patch #864689

  41 These patches have already been checked in to SWIG's CVS and are in

  45 swig.SplitLines.patch       Adds a new SplitLines function to the DOH
  46                             library.  See SF Patch #829317.
  47                             *Checked in 10/31/2003*
  48
  49 swig.xml.patch              Adds an option that drastically reduces
  50                             the size of the XML output of SWIG, which
  51                             increases the performance of the
  52                             build_renamers script used in the wxPython
  53                             build.  See SF Patch #829319.
  54                             *Checked in 10/31/2003*
  55
  56 swig.python.patch           Lots of changes for SWIG's Python module,
  57                             especially in how the proxy code is
  58                             generated.  See swig.python.patch.txt for
  59                             more details, also SF Patch #829325.
