 %include "your_header.hpp"

How much simpler than that can you get?  If you need to pick
classes/functions then you can use %ignores to ignore what you don't
want.  Yes, it is a problem that you can't pick specific classes from
a bunch of them.  Perhaps that would be a good feature to suggest on
the SWIG lists?  Note that you do get some extra flexibility with the
SWIG approach.
