SWIG is a software development tool that connects programs written in C and C++
with a variety of high-level programming languages. SWIG is used with different
types of target languages including common scripting languages such as
Javascript, Perl, PHP, Python, Tcl and Ruby. The list of supported languages
also includes non-scripting languages such as C#, Common Lisp (CLISP, Allegro
CL, CFFI, UFFI), D, Go language, Java, Lua, Modula-3, OCAML, Octave and R. Also
several interpreted and compiled Scheme implementations (Guile, MzScheme/Racket,
Chicken) are supported. SWIG is most commonly used to create high-level
interpreted or compiled programming environments, user interfaces, and as a tool
for testing and prototyping C/C++ software. SWIG is typically used to parse
C/C++ interfaces and generate the 'glue code' required for the above target
languages to call into the C/C++ code. SWIG can also export its parse tree in
the form of XML and Lisp s-expressions.
===> The following configuration options are available for swig-4.4.1:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
EXAMPLES=on: Build and/or install examples

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
