Byte array question

[dan.winsor at gmail.com]

Hi all,

I'm trying to write through SOAPpy in python to a Java implemented API.
 The API for the method I want to use is as follows:

boolean added = SoapService.addAttachmentsToIssue(token,
               issue.getKey(),
               new String[]{fileName},
               new byte[][]{getBytesFromFile(tmpFile)});

I've got everything covered except for the byte array.  The byte array
should be holding the contents of the attachment(s) I want to send
thorugh the API.  However, no matter how I try it, Java on the other
end doesn't like what I'm passing it there.

How can I mimic a byte array in python?  Suggestions on things to try?
