[Swig-user] using a "typedef'd" enum in perl

[Michele J. <er...@jl...>]

I'm using swig2.0 with perl wrapping C++ on linux.

I'm attempting to wrap a library that is not owned by me.

After wrapping the C++ header file, I have no problem using the 
enumerated _values_ (i.e. NorthLinac) in my perl script, but one of the 
methods requires a BldID as one of the arguments

C++:
  
int RFdef::RfName(const char *name, BldID 
<http://devweb/controls_web/certified/rflib/html/namespaceRFdef.html#a27> 
&id, unsigned &i, unsigned &j)

I'm trying to recreate this test C++ code:
     const char *name = "1L17-2";     
    RFdef::BldID id;
    unsigned i, j;
    const int got = RFdef::RfName(name, id, i, j);
   


Here's my very simple interface file:
    %module rfdef
    %{
        #include "../../inc/rfdef.h"
        typedef enum { Injector=0, NorthLinac, SouthLinac, BldCount } BldID;
    %}

    %include "../../inc/rfdef.h"


How do I instantiate (in perl) the RFdef::BldID type that the wrapped 
function expects?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
