Re: help with typemap

Sorry, the python test code error lines

pic= fltk.Fl_JPEG_Image(None, temp.getbuffer())
return Fl_JPEG_Image(None, temp.getvalue())

 don't match because I simplified the python code for the purposes of
this mailing list. Also, getvalue() and getbuffer() result in the same
error.
