It might not strictly be required, but I'd add:
%ModuleHeaderCode
#include <word.h>
%End
after the %CModule line (although it seems like you'd get compile errors if it
was really necessary - might depend on whether sip generated code is
concatenated for compiling or not).
You might also try:
Word *create_word(const char *);
char *reverse(Word *);
char *myReverse(const char *);
removing "struct" in two places (not sure if it's required or makes a
difference as far as sip is concerned - I believe it's not necessary though).
Also, in Python, try printing w.the_word before calling reverse.
You could also try making Word a class:
class Word
{
public:
char *the_word;
};
At one time (long ago) I had problems doing structs with sip, but I think
that's been fixed for quite a while.
Otherwise, I don't see any obvious errors in the sip file. I'd also look at
how the module is linked and if the .so file being wrapped can be found at
runtime.
