Interrogate and Datatypes

MLakin · October 17, 2008, 10:28pm

Hello,

I am currently trying to embed a C++ wiimote library (wiiyourself!) in python using interrogate. Interrogate keeps giving me parsing errors, which I have determined is referring to the libraryâ€™s use of special data types like BYTE and DWORD. Due to the way the wiimote library is implemented, I donâ€™t think it would be possible to replace these types with some equivalent. Does anyone know how to get around this issue? Any help would be appreciated.

I am new to these forums, so forgive me if this question has been addressed in the past. I could not find anything relevant in past searches.

BYTE = unsigned char and DWORD = unsigned int ?

I can’t help you with data types but I can point you to a project that has already integrated wiimote controls with Panda3d. Hypno’s Riimod has done this and he’s released the wiimote python drivers he used for it. Its not as extensively tested on windows but his release notes indicate that it does work for windows.
