check_swig_version(version, same=False)

source code

Check the swig version

Returns True if the version of the installed swig is equal or greater than the
version passed to the function.

If same is True, the function returns True if and only if the two versions
are the same.

Usage:
if instant.check_swig_version('1.3.36'):
    print "Swig version is greater than or equal to 1.3.36"
else:
    print "Swig version is lower than 1.3.36"

header_and_libs_from_pkgconfig(*packages, **kwargs)

source code

This function returns list of include files, flags,
libraries and library directories obtain from a pkgconfig file.

The usage is: 
  (includes, flags, libraries, libdirs) =              header_and_libs_from_pkgconfig(*list_of_packages)
or:
    (includes, flags, libraries, libdirs, linkflags) =              header_and_libs_from_pkgconfig(*list_of_packages,              returnLinkFlags=True)
