Wrapping C-enum in a Python module with Swig -

i have simple enum in c in myenum.h:

enum myenum {     one,     two,     3 }; 

the problem when map python, can access enum through module name, not through myenum. values one, two, 3 included other functions define, instead of being contained myenum.

my api.i file is:

%module api %{ #include "myenum.h" %} %include "myenum.h" 

i generate swig

swig -builtin -python api.i 

and import python

import _api 

and have use enum values _api module:

_api.one _api.two _api.three 

while want use them like

_api.myenum.one _api.myenum.two _api.myenum.three 

does know how can accomplish this?

there swig feature nspace want want, unfortunately isn't supported python yet. i've had define enum in struct show in manner desire in swig. example:

%module tmp  %inline %{ struct myenum {     enum { a,b,c }; }; %} 

result:

>>> import tmp >>> tmp.myenum.a 0 >>> tmp.myenum.b 1 >>> tmp.myenum.c 2
