Summary : SIP - Python/C++ Bindings Generator
URL : http://www.riverbankcomputing.com/software/sip/intro
License : GPLv2 or GPLv3 and (GPLv3+ with exceptions)
Description : SIP is a tool for generating bindings for C++ classes so that they can be
: accessed as normal Python classes. SIP takes many of its ideas from SWIG but,
: because it is specifically designed for C++ and Python, is able to generate
: tighter bindings. SIP is so called because it is a small SWIG.
:
: SIP was originally designed to generate Python bindings for KDE and so has
: explicit support for the signal slot mechanism used by the Qt/KDE class
: libraries. However, SIP can be used to generate Python bindings for any C++
: class library.
