It uses special .i or .swg files to generate the bindings (C/C++ with SWIG directives, then outputs a C/C++ file that contains all the wrapper code needed to build an extension module. More information: https://www.swig.org.

swig -c++ -python -o path/to/output_wrapper.cpp path/to/swig_file.i

  • Generate a binding between C++ and Go:

swig -go -cgo -intgosize 64 -c++ path/to/swig_file.i

  • Generate a binding between C and Java:

swig -java path/to/swig_file.i

  • Generate a binding between C and Ruby and prefix the Ruby module with foo::bar:::
