+JCC is a C++ code generator for producing the glue code necessary to call
+into Java classes from CPython via Java's Native Invocation Interface (JNI).
+
+JCC generates C++ wrapper classes that hide all the gory details of JNI
+access as well Java memory and object reference management.
+
+JCC generates CPython types that make these C++ classes accessible from a
+Python interpreter. JCC attempts to make these Python types pythonic by
+detecting iterators and property accessors. Iterators and mappings may
+also be declared to JCC.
