[ctypes-users] [ctypes-user] : Problem passing params to a function

[Laurent R. <lau...@gm...>]

Hi,

I'm using ctypes for a few days and I'm really enjoying it. But today I 
face a problem I'm not able to find a solution for.

The library I want to map defines a function as :

char *the_c_function(const char *str, int *sp)

When I read the part of the C code which uses this function I can see :

int ksiz
kbuf = the_c_function(key, &ksiz);

I already manage to use a number of the library functions but none of 
them used the memory address of the object. I tried :

ksiz = ctypes.c_int
mylib.the_c_function(key, ctypes.addressof(ksiz))

but I always get an error about ctypes.addressof(ksiz) not being of the 
wright type.

Any idea ?

Regards,

Laurent
