Is there a way that Python and C can have a shared definition for a

It could be nice if:
1. struct or ctypes had a function that could parse a .h/.c/.cpp file
to auto-generate constructors
or
2. a ctypes definition could be exported to a .h file.

So my question is - is there a way to do this in the std-lib or even pypi?

ps If this doesn't exist, then I'm probably going to open a project
and would like some tips/ideas.

gccxml can be used to do this, there is a ctypes utilities module that works
with the output of gccxml.

Found this: http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/ctypes/old/codegen.html
which I take to be the module you're talking about. From the docs it doesn't
appear to have worked with gccxml since before 0.6, which is more than 5
years old. Am I at the wrong place?

Nope, that's it. I don't understand what you mean with "since before 0.6" - all I can say is I got it working last year with a GCC 3.X or 4.x project.
