Remember that you don't need any extra tool at all to create the
necessary wrappers; just code them manually. I myself wanted to
use SWIG & Co. right from the beginning; but found it difficult
without having coded wrappers myself previously. Now I find that
a much better approach is to first code a number of wrappers
manually, which in most cases follows the same scheme. Only then
you will be able to fully understand and appreciate how SWIG
works. You might even find that the manual approach suits your
needs better.
