>Description:
SWIG is a tool for automatically generating the wrapper code needed
to link collections of functions written in C/C++ with other
programming languages.

Using SWIG, it is possible to greatly simplify interface development
and to put interesting interfaces on existing applications with
little effort.    

WWW:	http://www.swig.org/

SWIG 2.0 is required by the few remaining components of FEniCS (py-instant 1.0.0, ufc, and dolfin) which are not yet committed, but nearly ready.  PRs will be submitted after they are re-tested with the committed swig20 port.

This port can coexist with swig13 (although swig13 should probably also use dirrmtry for DATADIR, DOCSDIR, and EXAMPLESDIR, which are shared by both ports).

The maintainer of swig13 has indicated that he is not interested in maintaining swig20 at this time, and wants to keep swig13 in the tree.
