Renaming SWIGTYPE_p_void

[Solomon Gibbs-3]

I'm working on wrapping an set of methods that use void* for no reason except to keep the data type in question opaque to the user. These 12 methods all expect a pointer to a specific type, so I would like my wrappers to use a proxy class with a name that refers to that type rather than SWIGTYPE_p_void.

%rename (void) Reference;

doesn't seem to work.

Is there any way I can rename the proxy class with a directive? Or do I need a typemap for this?

One approach is to hide the void with a typedef and to use the typedef  
name in declarations

%{
typedef void Foo;            // Not seen by Swig
%}

// Declarations you want to wrap
extern bar(Foo *obj, ...);
extern spam(Foo *obj, ...);
