[Numpy-discussion] How to call methods from a class with custom matrices parameters with numpy arrays ?

Yes, all my code is in C++, and in fact the code I use in Python should be
object-oriented as well, that's why it is not that easy to define how I'm
going to do this...


Using C++ with ctypes makes the wrapping

That works great for C then, not that well for C++...


But writing some C code kills

Yes, but even with SWIG, I think I'll have to write wrapper in C or in SWIG
to transform one array in my matrix and vice versa. Well, that should be a
great example for my book ;)


I have attached a simplistic example which show how to wrap some functions.


Many thanks, it is simple, I only have to provide the wrappers :| and I have
to do something with the class instance :| I'll think a little bit about how
to do this properly and efficiently
