I am new to using swig and I am having a problem accessing a class in an
aliased namespace correctly.

the header file:

namespace bar=foo;

namespace foo {
   class Handle
     public:
      ....
   };
}

swig file:


class Handle
    public:
      ....
};

When the swig wrapper is created  the code is like:

bar::Handle;

and it creates a generic swig pointer for it:
SWIGTYPE_p_bar_Handle

It also creates the C# proxy class for the generic pointer
SWIGTYPE_p_bar_Handle.cs and the Handle.cs class.

How do I get the generic swig pointer and the Handle to be the same?

Thanks,

To answer my own question I placed the following in my .i file:

namespace foo {
   class Handle
     public:
      ....
   };
}

class Handle
    public:
      ....
};

This handles both namespaced references to Handle and non namespace references.
Is there possible a more elegant way to resolve this?  

As it is right now I have a lot of class code replication in my SWIG file.
