[issue24880] ctypeslib patch for regular expression for symbols to include

[Jan Wagner]

New submission from Jan Wagner:

There is an issue in ctypeslib that affects xml2py.py option "-r". The usage 
informs that "-r EXPRESSION regular expression for symbols to include". 
However, when the expression is evaluated, only exact name matches are actually 
selected. For example, -r "set" would match only a function called set. 

The underlying issue is in codegenerator.py. Here is a small patch that changes 
the behaviour of codegenerator.py so that it (and xml2py.py) are more 
consistent with the usage instructions. With the patch, -r "set" will match all 
functions containing set, e.g., setData, setAxis, and so on.

Yes, hosted at svn.python.org, but without any means of "externally" filing a 
bug report or patch for it other than here on bugs.python.org. Maybe theller 
you could include this patch?   Change status to closed + third party...?
