I am trying the following... any thoughts?


%typemap(in) FILE * {
    if (!PyFile_Check($input)) {
        PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "Need a file!");
        return NULL;
    }
%#ifdef __MINGW32__
        PyFileObject *fo = (PyFileObject *)$input;
        $1 = fdopen(_fileno(fo->f_fp),PyString_AsString(fo->f_mode));
        fprintf(stderr,"FDOPEN(%d,\"%s\")\n",fo->f_fp,PyString_AsString(fo-
>f_mode));
%#else
    $1 = PyFile_AsFile($input);
%#endif
}
