-SIP is a tool for generating bindings for C++ classes so that they can be
-accessed as normal Python classes. SIP takes many of its ideas from SWIG but,
-because it is specifically designed for C++ and Python, is able to generate
-tighter bindings. SIP is so called because it is a small SWIG.
-
-SIP was originally designed to generate Python bindings for KDE and so has
-explicit support for the signal slot mechanism used by the Qt/KDE class
-libraries. However, SIP can be used to generate Python bindings for any C++
-class library.
-
-The bindings generated by SIP support access to the following C++ and Qt
-features:
- - connecting Qt signals to Python functions and class methods
- - connecting Python signals to Qt slots
- - overloading virtual member functions with Python class methods
- - protected member functions
- - abstract classes
- - enumerated types
- - global class instances
- - static member functions.
