[Swig-user] Nested structs and XML wrapper code

[Andrea F. <and...@al...>]

Hi all,

I noticed an unexpected behaviour in the generation of the XML wrapper
code of nested structs. It seems that the declaration of the nested
struct comes *after* the declaration of the container struct.

E.g.

typedef struct {
  struct {
    char a;
  } nested;
} my_struct;

Looking at SWIG documentation I understand that the example below should
be transformed in something like:

typedef struct {
  char a;
} my_struct_nested;

typedef struct {
  my_struct_nested nested;
} my_struct;

But it seems that the generated XML wrapper code doesn't reflect the
situation below. In fact, the definition of my_struct_nested comes
*after* the definition of my_struct. Is this the expected behaviour? 

I'm using SWIG version 1.3.40. Full interface/wrapper code attached.

Thanks in advance.
Andrea
