[Swig-user] typedef void*

[Ujjal B. <ujj...@nx...>]

Hi, this is my first mail to the group. 

I am trying to wrap a C header file (headerfile.h) which have a typedef 
like this
          " typedef void*  HANDLE;   "
and than in my  interface file I am doing something like this, also the 
header file (headerfile.h) is included in the interface file.
        %{
            typedef void*  HANDLE;
         %}

                    typedef void* HANDLE;

        %inline %{
           HANDLE  event;
           HANDLE* p_event=&event;
         %}

Now I am declaring 'p_event' as global in my tcl script and trying to 
access the variable. But it says that  "Cant read p_event no such 
variable" .
Can any body give any pointers where am i going wrong.Is there any other 
alternative ?

Regards,
Ujjal
