-SWIG 1.3 Patches
-================
+SWIG 1.3.x 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
tracker, so hopefully they will get incorporated into the main SWIG
source tree soon.
+wxPython currently uses the 1.3.24 version of SWIG, which you can get
+from https://sourceforge.net/projects/swig/, plus the patch(es) in this
+directory. Download the SWIG sources, apply the patch(es) here and
+then build as normal. If you want to use both the patched version of
+SWIG and the stock version, then you can configure the patched version
+to use a different --prefix and then specify that executable when
+running setup.py, like this:
+
+ python setup.py SWIG=/path/to/my/swig [other params]
+

-swig.python-2.patch Adds the ability to turn off the automatic
- generation of __repr__ methods on a class
- by class basis. Used in wxPython for
- classes that have a __repr__ added in
- %pythoncode directives. See SF Patch
- #835471.
+swig-1.3.24.patch
+
+ A bug was introduced in SWIG 1.3.23 and remains in 1.3.24 that
+ causes compilation problems with wxPython (copies are being made
+ of objects that don't have a copy constructor.) This patch fixes
+ the code generator to use a reference to the object instead of
+ making a copy.
+
+ Part of my autodoc patch was disabled becuase a unit-test failed.
+ It turns out that the failure was due to a name clash in the unit
+ test itself, so I re-enabled that section of code in this patch.
+
+ Don't generate the autodocs string for a class if it has a
+ docstring attribute.
+
+ Some typos fixed, etc.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+This patch was added to SWIG's CVS on 10/2/2004 and a modified version
+of it is in 1.3.23 and 1.3.24.
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+
+swig.python-2.patch
+
+ Adds the following features to the Python Module in SWIG. See the
+ updated docs in the patch for more details.
+
+ %feature("autodoc")
+ %feature("docstring")
+ %feature("pythonprepend")
+ %feature("pythonappend")
+
+ %module(docstring="string")
+ %module(package="string")

+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+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

-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.
