This example tests the %import directive and working with multiple modules. Use 'ruby runme.rb' to run a test. Overview: --------- The example defines 4 different extension modules--each wrapping a separate C++ class. base.i - Base class foo.i - Foo class derived from Base bar.i - Bar class derived from Base spam.i - Spam class derived from Bar Each module uses %import to refer to another module. For example, the 'foo.i' module uses '%import base.i' to get definitions for its base class. If everything is okay, all of the modules will load properly and type checking will work correctly. Caveat: Some compilers, for example gcc-3.2.x, generate broken vtables with the inline methods in this test. This is not a SWIG problem and can usually be solved with non-inlined destructors compiled into separate shared objects/DLLs. Unix: ----- - Run make - Run the test as described above Windows: -------- - Use the Visual C++ 6 workspace file (example.dsw). Build the runtime project DLL first followed by the other 4 DLLs as they all have a dependency on the runtime DLL. The Batch build option in the Build menu is usually the easiest way to do this. Only use the Release builds not the Debug builds. - Run the test as described above
