Dear Ben,

1) I have spotted that you bounced my last email from the mailing list; would you prefer that I contact
you directly on a certain email address?

2) I tried to configure libsbml2.3.4 with swig1.3.24 which does not work.
what version are you using? (error below)

I further tried to include the relevant --Ptr classes into the swig i file, because they are not in there
but that fails because there are no respective header files, so I assume the --Ptr classes are generated on
the run.

thank you
olli

Did you change the version of SWIG you were using? Configuring --
with-swig reruns SWIG which recreates the generated wrapper code.
Unfortunately, even a minor change in SWIG version number can lead to
dramatically different wrapper code. To get the Ptr classes back,
start with a fresh copy of libSBML 2.3.4 and omit the --with-swig
configure option or make sure you're using SWIG 1.3.24.
