It's probably not as hard as you think: http://www.swig.org/tutorial.html See especially the "SWIG for the truly lazy" section, where you basically just need to point it at a header file. Of course, this will result in a rather raw binding, and often times it can be useful to customize things to make them more natural for a particular language. eric
