Xapian discuss - Aug 2007 - xapian python bindings

Hello list

The PHP bindings has a limitation which is really due to a SWIG 
limitation - it makes it so you can't use the matchdecider function in PHP.

Is this the same for the Python bindings?  Is it the same for all SWIG 
generated bindings?

Thanks
Alec

No, it's a limitation of SWIG with PHP (primarily). Deciders should
work with python (and, I believe, ruby? and some others).

See python/examples/docs/simplematchdecider.py in the xapian-bindings
distribution for an example.
