Tim Potter 5a1f6c999e r5224: Add in/out typemaps for resume handles. This saves us having to much
around with pointers to just one uint32.

Add an output typemap to copy a policy handle as the talloc context is
destroyed before the wrapper function returns.  More work here needed
to avoid memory leaks.

Use the swig carrays.i file to create accessor and setter functions
for fixed width integer types.  Also add functions for struct samr_SamEntry
as it's returned by the LookupDomain RPC.  This really needs to be
done by pidl so I don't have to go through and find all the structures
that are returned in arrays.

Include security.i to give us SIDs and security descriptors.

README for Samba SWIG Python extensions
---------------------------------------

Instructions for building:

1. Run configure with the --with-python option to enable python
   extensions. 

2. Edit the script/build_idl.sh script to pass the --swig option to
   pidl.  Here's a patch:

3. Run 'make idl_full swig' to build extensions.

4. At some stage there will be a proper system for installing the
   extensions, but right now it's easier to run them in place.  Set
   your PYTHONPATH to include the modules.  From the Samba source
   directory, run:

   export PYTHONPATH=`pwd`/scripting/swig

Now you can go nuts and use the extensions.  Check the
scripting/swig/torture directory for a testsuite.  There will
hopefully be a bunch of usage examples somewhere.
