[Insight-users] Python wrapping

[Uday Kurkure]

Thanks Bradley. I was using SWIG that is inside ITK.

Today, I tried with both system swig (swig 1.3) and locally installed
swig (swig 2.0.9).
I faced a new problem.
Whenever I change the paths to SWIG_DIR and SWIG_EXECUTABLE in cmake
and configure, it reverts back to the ITK swig (I checked the
CMakeCache and it has paths to ITK swig to my surprise) after
configuring.

How can I fix the paths to swig in cmake?

You could try installing the system SWIG, and starting to build again from a fresh configure and ensure that it's using the system SWIG.
