do you have to use SWIG? this would be really easy in Cython....
cdef cdef extern from "your_header.h":
void add_array(double* input_array1,
double* input_array2,
double* output_array,
int length)
def py_add_array( np.ndarray[double, ndim=1] arr1,
np.ndarray[double, ndim=1] arr2):
cdef int length
if arr1.shape != arr2.shape:
raise ValueError("Arrays must be the same size")
length = arr1.shape[0]
cdef np.ndarray[double, ndim=1] out_arr = np.empty((length),
dtype=np.float64)
add_array(&arr1[0],
&arr2[0],
&out_arr[0],
length)
return out_arr
Untested and from memory -- but you get the idea.
