  Note that there's currently silent truncation of strings passed to
  char arguments.

>>> rewrap_value_char('xy')

>>> rewrap_value_long(42)
42
>>> rewrap_value_unsigned_long(42)
42

    test unsigned long values which don't fit in a signed long.
    strip any 'L' characters in case the platform has > 32 bit longs
        
>>> hex(rewrap_value_unsigned_long(0x80000001L)).replace('L','')
'0x80000001'

>>> rewrap_value_long_long(42)
42L
>>> rewrap_value_unsigned_long_long(42)

   show that we have range checking. 
 
>>> try: rewrap_value_unsigned_short(-42)
... except OverflowError: pass
... else: print 'expected an OverflowError!'

>>> try: rewrap_value_int(sys.maxint * 2)
... except OverflowError: pass

>>> assert abs(rewrap_value_float(4.2) - 4.2) < .000001
>>> rewrap_value_double(4.2) - 4.2
0.0

'hello, world'
>>> rewrap_value_string('yo, wassup?')
'yo, wassup?'
>>> rewrap_value_wstring(u'yo, wassup?')
u'yo, wassup?'

    test that overloading on unicode works:
    
>>> rewrap_value_string(u'yo, wassup?')
u'yo, wassup?'

   wrap strings with embedded nulls:
   
>>> rewrap_value_string('yo,\0wassup?')
'yo,\x00wassup?'

>>> rewrap_value_handle(1)
1
>>> x = 'hi'
>>> assert rewrap_value_handle(x) is x
>>> assert rewrap_value_object(x) is x

  Note that we can currently get a mutable pointer into an immutable
  Python string:
  
>>> rewrap_value_mutable_cstring('hello, world')
'hello, world'

>>> rewrap_const_reference_bool(None)
0
>>> rewrap_const_reference_bool(0)
0

>>> try: rewrap_const_reference_bool('yes')
... except TypeError: pass
... else: print 'expected a TypeError exception'

>>> rewrap_const_reference_char('x')
'x'

  Note that there's currently silent truncation of strings passed to
  char arguments.

>>> rewrap_const_reference_char('xy')

Check that None <==> NULL

>>> rewrap_const_reference_cstring(None)

But None cannot be converted to a string object:

>>> try: rewrap_const_reference_string(None)
... except TypeError: pass
... else: print 'expected a TypeError exception'

Now check implicit conversions between floating/integer types

>>> rewrap_const_reference_float(42)
42.0

>>> rewrap_const_reference_float(42L)
42.0

>>> try: rewrap_const_reference_int(42.0)
... except TypeError: pass
... else: print 'expected a TypeError exception'

>>> rewrap_value_float(42)
42.0

>>> try: rewrap_value_int(42.0)
... except TypeError: pass
... else: print 'expected a TypeError exception'

Check that classic classes also work

>>> class FortyTwo:
...     def __int__(self):
...         return 42
...     def __float__(self):
...         return 42.0
...     def __complex__(self):
...         return complex(4+.2j)
...     def __str__(self):
...         return '42'

>>> try: rewrap_const_reference_float(FortyTwo())
... except TypeError: pass
... else: print 'expected a TypeError exception'

>>> try: rewrap_value_int(FortyTwo())
... except TypeError: pass
... else: print 'expected a TypeError exception'

>>> try: rewrap_const_reference_string(FortyTwo())
... except TypeError: pass
... else: print 'expected a TypeError exception'

>>> try: rewrap_value_complex_double(FortyTwo())
... except TypeError: pass
... else: print 'expected a TypeError exception'

# show that arbitrary handle<T> instantiations can be returned
>>> assert get_type(1) is type(1)

>>> assert return_null_handle() is None
