ctypes, python 2.5, WinFunctionType and _as_parameter_

Hello,

how to get at the function address of a WinFunctionType ctypes object ?
With ctypes 1.0, I used just myfunc._as_para meter_ and all was well.
With ctypes 1.0.1, that ships with python 2.5, WinFunctionType has no
longer an _as_parameter_ attribute

Where in the ChangeLog and the documentation is explained how to deal
with this change ?

Thanks in advance,

Gerard

I think the easiest way is to cast to function to a void pointer and
get the value of that. Something like:

cast(function, c_void_p).value

Hm, I considered _as_parameter_ an implementation detail ;-)
Thanks in advance,

Hey, I'm trying to wrap GNU readline with ctypes (the Python readline library doesn't support the callback interface), but I can't figure out how to set values to a variable inside the library. This is Python 2.5 on Linux. Here's what I have so far--if you comment out the memmove call (3 lines) it works as expected: # START #!/usr/local/bin/python2.5
