If we are talking about the same thing, the short answer to your question
is yes, but I suspect that there is no ready software for doing the job.
For the Informix libraries I wrapped some C-Routine using SWIG and I can
at least confirm that it works.

At the time, the company I worked for had a number of C-Programs that were
actually used for accessing the database, so I didn't wrap the C_ISAM
Routines directly but instead wrapped those (application specific)
routines. But there should be no problem in wrapping the basic C-ISAM
routines.
