Re: [Swig-user] cannot wrap correctly a pointer

[Mocanu L. <liv...@ya...>]

I've used this in TCL interpreter prompt: 

%::RSLIB::rsfsp_init TCPIP::192.168.101.1::INSTR 0 0 123
TypeError in method 'rsfsp_init', argument 4 of type 'ViPSession'


This function performs some initialization actions.

What ViPSession represents (as per manual) :

instrumentHandle     ViSession     This control returns an Instrument Handle that is used in all subsequent  
                                                            function calls to differentiate between different sessions of this instrument 
                                                            driver.

Notes:  Each time this function is invoked a Unique Session is opened. It is possible to have more than one session open for the same resource.

So, I thought that the pointer of type "ViPSession" is being taken care automatically if I use typemaps.i and/or cpointer.i .

Liviu

You haven't told us what you're trying to pass for this pointer.  I can't 
see what it would be.  Although you've %include'd cpointer.i, you haven't 
used it to create useful handling of unsigned long pointers.
