[Insight-users] Wrapping Custom Classes

[Carlos Phillips]

Hi,
It's been a while since I have been able to work on this code, but I 
finally have time. ConnectVTKITK has a lot of configuration code needed 
for dealing with VTK and it does not actually wrap an itk class. 
Unfortunately, I am not very familiar with CableSwig/cmake so I'm not 
sure how to wrap my class based on this example. Is there any simple 
example of wrapping a external subclass of ITK for use in python?
