[Numpy-discussion] f2py with int8

Hi, I am using f2py to pass a numpy array of type numpy.int8 to fortran. It seems like I am misunderstanding something because I just can't make it work. Here is what I am doing. PYTHON b=numpy.array(numpy.zeros(shape=(10,),dtype=numpy.int8),order='F') b[0]=1 b[2]=1 b[3]=1 b array([1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], dtype=int8) FORTRAN subroutine print_bit_array(bits,n) use iso_fortran_env integer,intent(in)::n integer(kind=int8),intent(in),dimension(n)::bits print*,'bits = ',bits end subroutine print_bit_array RESULT when calling fortran from python bits = 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 Any Ideas? thanks, John
