ctypesgen should generate helpful docstrings for the functions it creates. This patch adds a "-d" switch to xml2py.

Since ctypeslib (which contains the code generator) is a thirdparty product I'm closing this.

Bugs and patches for ctypes addon products should be submitted to the ctypes tracker at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=71702.

However, I'm happy to discuss this patch on the ctypes-users mailing list.

I would like to note that I finally integrated a patch similar to yours in the ctypeslib project.
The switch for the xml2py script is '-c' for 'comments'.  The generated comments include the C function signature from the header file, plus the name of the header file itself and the line number where the function definition is.
