I started something similar on Dolphin. The code parses SWIG XML Output 
and generates the Dolphin FFI stuff for it "automagically" including 
calls, enums and structures.

However somewhere along the road my experience is that SWIG from it's 
nature really expects to produce a combination of C wrapper code and 
foreign language code. It's very hard to generate direct FFI code (w/o 
using the C wrapper) in some cases as this is simply not SWIGs intention.

I can publish my SWIG stuff if you like.

CU,

Udo
