+[AutoWIG]_ is a Python library that wraps automatically compiled libraries into
+high-level languages. It parses C++ code using LLVM/Clang technologies and
+generates the wrappers using the Mako templating engine. The approach is automatic,
+extensible, and applies to very complex C++ libraries, composed of thousands of
+classes or incorporating modern meta-programming constructs.
