%text %{
%include array.i

This module provides scripting language access to various kinds of C/C++
arrays. For each datatype, a collection of four functions are created :

   <type>_array(size)              : Create a new array of given size
   <type>_get(array, index)        : Get an element from the array
   <type>_set(array, index, value) : Set an element in the array
   <type>_destroy(array)           : Destroy an array

The functions in this library are only low-level accessor functions
designed to directly access C arrays.  Like C, no bounds checking is
performed so use at your own peril.
