[PyKDE] Any tools to generate sip files?

[Frederick Polgardy Jr]

It sounds wonderful in theory, but it's completely impractical in reality.  
It's fairly easy to convert basic language constructs (if/else, while, 
switch, function decls, class decls, etc.), but just about anything else is 
going to involve classes and functions in other libraries, which involves 
either A) too much knowlege on the part of the translator of how other 
libraries are implemented, or B) copious amounts of translation rules and 
supporting modules.
