OUTPUT section of typemap file

[Thompson, Lloyd D. (NSSD)]

Hello,

I'm using Inline::C to wrap a c api for use in perl.  I've successfully
wrapped some functions using the SV* perl type for the parameter types
but I would like to use a typemap file so that I can use the typedef'ed
types from the API.  The problem I have is that the OUTPUT section of
the typemap file doesn't seem to be getting executed.

I have working:

long my_LL_ValueAlloc(SV* value) {
   int tmpValue;
   long rval = LL_ValueAlloc(&tmpValue);
   sv_setiv(value, tmpValue);
   return rval;
   }

I would like to have:

LLSTATUS my_LL_ValueAlloc(LLVALUE value) {
   long rval = LL_ValueAlloc(&value);
   return rval;
   }


My typemap file:

LLSTATUS    T_IV
LLLONG      T_IV
#LLVALUE     T_IV
#LLVALUE     T_PTR
LLVALUE     MY_IV


##############################################
INPUT
MY_IV
   $var = ($type)5;

##############################################
OUTPUT
MY_IV
   sv_setiv($arg, (IV)5);



The input section seems to be working because I when I print the value
of the input parameter it is always 5, but when I check the value of the
input parameter from the perl code it is never changed.  Am I missing
something in the configuration?  Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
