- SIP - C/C++ Bindings Generator for Python v2 and v3
- ===================================================
-
- The SIP documentation (including installation instructions) can be found in the
- ``doc`` directory.

-
- Building from the Mercurial Repository
- --------------------------------------
-
- If you are using a copy of SIP cloned from the Mercurial repository, or are
- using a Mercurial archive, then you have to prepare it first before you follow
- the normal installation instructions.
-
- The preparation is done using the ``build.py`` script which can be found in the
- same directory as this ``README`` file. If it isn't there then you probably
- have a packaged release and should just follow the normal installation
- instructions.
-
- The ``build.py`` script requires that ``flex`` and ``bison`` are installed. If
- you want to create the HTML documentation then Sphinx must also be installed.
-
- To prepare run the following::
-
- python build.py prepare
-
- Now you can follow the normal installation instructions.
-
- The ``build.py`` script has other useful commands, use the ``--help`` option to
- see the details.
