bug while wrapping const char arrays without an explicitly defined size

Using the latest CVS version:

If I have a char array defined like this:

 const char BeginString_FIX44[8] = "FIX.4.4";

The wrapper for this is generated correctly like so:

static PyObject *_wrap_BeginString_FIX44_get() {
    PyObject *pyobj;

    pyobj = SWIG_FromCharArray(FIX::BeginString_FIX44, 8);
    return pyobj;
}

However, if it is defined like so:

 const char BeginString_FIX44[] = "FIX.4.4";

This gets generated:

static PyObject *_wrap_BeginString_FIX44_get() {
    PyObject *pyobj;

    pyobj = SWIG_FromCharArray(FIX::BeginString_FIX44, );
    return pyobj;
}

As you can see the size is missing which of course results in 
compilation errors.  It would seem to me in this case Swig should count 
up the characters in the string and place the value as the second 
parameter to FromCharArray.  I'd be happy to try to create a patch but 
am not familiar with the source and would need someone to point me to 
the module where this generation occurs.  Thanks.
