License question is arised because nothing is forcing people to supply any copyright and/or license notices with the files generated with use of .i files. I think that contributors to .i files deserved the right to be mentioned in some way with the result cpp, dll or something.
I thought the problem with the .i files was that they contain code from the PhysX headers and thus cannot be open-sourced. Do you have details on that? Did you contact Ageia about it? Or do you just #include the header and do not copy from it?
I'm trying to understand what the issues are with the licensing.
The files generated contains code copied in from various swig files right? Like director.swg and typemaps.i. Wouldn't that code be covered by the licenses from the original files?
Isn't all the editing done in the *.i-files? In that case there would not be any need to release the generated file (all_wrap.cxx). The contributing developers would just have to generate it from the i.files using SWIG.
2. I'm using Netbeans. Is it necessary to create a project for a certain IDE? F.ex. jME can be checked out into any IDE can't it?
