[Plplot-devel] PLplot, python, and SWIG

[Maurice L. <mj...@ga...>]

In my tests from last Sept, I found that swig versions:

    1.3.11 - 1.3.13

were the only ones that worked with the plplot python wrapper code.
Specifically:

    1.3.14 & 1.3.15

did NOT work, due to the following change:

 > < #define SWIG_init    initplplotc 
 > < #define SWIG_name    "plplotc" 
 >  
 > > #define SWIG_init    init_plplotc 
 > > #define SWIG_name    "_plplotc" 
 >  
 > The latter ones are those generated by swig 1.3.14.  Ugh. 
 
Has this been fixed?  I don't recall seeing cvs commits for it but could've
missed it.

BTW the latest swig is up to 1.3.17.  If we do go to release with it working
only with swig 1.3.11 - 1.3.13, this needs to be very prominently stated
*somewhere*.
