Edit Question
Title
Body
I am attempting to cast a C style const char[] string pointer (returned from a DLL) into a Python compatible string type. but when Python27 executes: import ctypes charPtr = ctypes.cast( "HiThere", ctypes.c_char_p ) print( "charPtr = ", charPtr ) we get: charPtr = c_char_p('HiThere') perhaps something is not to be evaluating properly. My questions are: how should one cast this charPtr back into a Python compatible, print-able string? is the cast operation just mentioned doing what it should be doing?
