Sorry I think I misunderstood you. In case you want to pass a file to swig you
need a typemap:
<snip>
/*
* Type mapping for grabbing a FILE * from Python
* Taken from the Swig documentation ...
*/
%typemap(python,in) FILE * {
if (!PyFile_Check($input)) {
PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "Need a file!");
goto fail;
}
$1 = PyFile_AsFile($input);
}
</snip>
Please note that this typemap is for swig1.3. In case you are using swig1.1
you should replace $1 with $result and "goto fail" with return NULL (which can
leak memory ).
