| SIP is a tool that makes it very easy to create Python |
| bindings for C and C++ libraries. It was originally |
| developed to create PyQt, the Python bindings for the Qt |
| toolkit, but can be used to create bindings for any C or C++ |
| library. |
| |
| SIP comprises a code generator and a Python module. The code |
| generator processes a set of specification files and |
| generates C or C++ code which is then compiled to create the |
| bindings extension module. The SIP Python module provides |
| support functions to the automatically generated code. |
