Okay,
i see the issue now. Basically i was under an impression that FFI was somehow
a more elaborate thing... Sorry for the bother, the actual thing i need is
more like cppyy, but working =) Anyways, might be actually interesting to see
it work with SWIG, since it uses C-like functions to wrap C++ classes. But, as
you have said, it is pre-alpha, so no SWIG as of now...
BR,
Alex.
