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.
