Revised solution uses 'from_address' instead of '_ctypes._cast_addr'.

import ng27ext

import ctypes as c
class TypeA( c.Structure ):
_fields_= [
( 'a', c.c_int ),
( 'b', c.c_float )

def exposed( pobj1, pobj2 ):

obj2.a= c.c_int( 60 )

 Take this for what it's worth.  If I understand correctly, you want
 this:

 struct info {
   char* name;
   char* address;
   int age;

 };

 int main( ) {
   info A, B;
   python_run( \
 from urllib import urlget\n\
 from mylib import populate_struct\n\
 page= urlget( 'http://something')\n\
 populate_struct( page, A )\n\
 populate_struct( page, B )\n );
   if( A.age B.age ) {
     something_in_C( );
   }
   return 0;

 }

 Am I on the right track?  Do you have any questions so far?

I am stumped.  Here's what I have.

/C file:

typedef struct {

static PyObject *
methA(PyObject *self, PyObject *args) {
TypeA a;
TypeA b;

a.a= 10;
a.b= 20.5;
b.a= 30;
b.b= 40.5;
printf( %p %p\n, a, b );

pa= a;
pb= b;

res= PyObject_CallFunction( fun, II, pa, pb );
Py_DECREF( res );

return PyInt_FromLong( 0 );
}

/Py file:

import ng27ext

import ctypes as c
class TypeA( c.Structure ):
_fields_= [
( 'a', c.c_int ),
( 'b', c.c_float )
]

def exposed( obj1, obj2 ):
print 'in exposed'
print hex( obj1 ), hex( obj2 )
a= c.POINTER( TypeA ).from_address( obj1 )
print a
print a.contents

print ng27ext.methA( exposed )

/Output:

0021FD48 0021FD40
in exposed
0x21fd48 0x21fd40
ctypes.LP_TypeA object at 0x009FF350
__main__.TypeA object at 0x009FF4E0
0

Which is unexpected.  The address on line 4 should be the contents of
'obj1', 0x21fd48, which it's not.  I must not be using 'from_address'
properly.

You can start googling for:

- SIP
- ctypes (built-in module)
- And more.
