#!/bin/bash

# This is a wrapper script that you can put into your path and give it a short name: e.g: ~/bin/swtb
# It will make a local copy of the rebuild_swt_natives script (if the one from the repo is newer)
# and execute it.

# The idea is that if you checkout an old SWT codebase that didn't have rebuild_swt_natives,
# you could still rebuild swt bindings by running the local copy via this script.

# Instructions:
# Move this script:  
#    cp ./rebuild_swt_natives_wrapper.sh ~/bin/swtb
# Run it at least once:
#    ~/bin/swtb
# Re-run it when needed via 'swtb'
