SWIG 1.3 Patches
================

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

wxPython currently uses the 1.3.22 version of SWIG, which you can get
from https://sourceforge.net/projects/swig/, plus the patches in this
directory.  Download the SWIG sources, apply the patch(es) here and
then build as normal.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
This patch was applied to SWIG's CVS on 07/12/2004 and is in the
1.3.22 relese.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

swig.xmlout.patch            Fixes a couple problems in the XML output
                             of SWIG: an extra "/>" was removed and
                             newlines in attribute values were changed
                             to the #10; entity reference so they will
                             be preserved by parsers.

                             Also, added options for dumping or
                             writing to a file the XML of the parse
                             tree *after* other language modules have
                             been run (previously you could only do
                             the XML output *instead of* a regular
                             language module.)
                             See SF Patch #864689



------------------------------------------------------------------------
These patches have already been checked in to SWIG's CVS and are in
the 1.3.20 release.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

swig.SplitLines.patch       Adds a new SplitLines function to the DOH
                            library.  See SF Patch #829317.
                            *Checked in 10/31/2003*

swig.xml.patch              Adds an option that drastically reduces
                            the size of the XML output of SWIG, which
                            increases the performance of the
                            build_renamers script used in the wxPython
                            build.  See SF Patch #829319.
                            *Checked in 10/31/2003*

swig.python.patch           Lots of changes for SWIG's Python module,
                            especially in how the proxy code is
                            generated.  See swig.python.patch.txt for
                            more details, also SF Patch #829325.
