When trying to create a BigEndianStructure containing a c_bool field (on a windows machine), i get the following traceback:

  File "/home/elkarouh/anaconda2/lib/python2.7/ctypes/_endian.py", line 24, in _other_endian
    raise TypeError("This type does not support other endian: %s" % typ)
TypeError: This type does not support other endian: <class 'ctypes.c_bool'>

I fixed the problem by patching __init__.py under the ctypes directory by adding the following two lines:

c_bool.__ctype_le__ = c_bool.__ctype_be__ = c_bool
_check_size(c_bool)

Please post or upload minimal code that reproduces the problem for you.

Reproduced on 3.11:

>>> from ctypes import *
>>> class r( BigEndianStructure ):
...     _fields_ = [( "d0", c_uint32),
...                 ( "d1", c_bool )
...                      ]
...

    fields.append((name, _other_endian(typ)) + rest)
                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
