[C++-sig] creating character arrays in Boost.Python

[Faheem Mitha]

Dear People,

If I want to create a character array in C++ in Boost.Python, along
similar lines to Python's numarray.strings.array(itemsize,shape), is
there a way to do it?

The collection of factory functions in <boost/python/numeric.hpp> look
relevant, but I am not sure what the correct syntax would be. For
example, what should I set for Buffer?

Thanks.                                                  Faheem.
