perhaps. writing typemaps is like writing C anyway as I recall, so these
would be a similar task.
I would think that the abstractions provided by swig would be a win. maybe
its harder to debug? maybe swig isn't always reliable? dunno. i'm not a
swig expert.
in fact i havent done much for the python-ldap project for quite some time
its been very quiet. so much for open source enthusiasm! :)
maybe after i've shifted house, finished these papers and other work
and other projects that i'm involved in i will find time.... :(
