[PyKDE] SIP overhead

[Sato, Kristine]

I have just started looking at SIP as an alternative to SWIG for wrapping
C++ code for use with Python. The drawback with SWIG is that you must
generate "shadow classes" in Python in order to access your wrapped class as
a Python class. This introduces overhead I would like to avoid.

I know little about SIP as of yet, trying to read through as much
documentation as I can find. Any information on its efficiency and
comparison to SWIG is much appreciated!

Thanks,
Kristine
