Hello,
Thank you for posting about instant. I think it looks like a
Dear Vince,
You probably have heard better solutions but I think what I do works and
is simple to learn. When I need to call C++ code from Python, I write a
wrapper extern "C" function that calls the C++ function that returns the
result. Then I just use ctypes to call the extern "C" function fr

Hmmm... last time I tried ctypes it seemed pretty
Windows oriented and I got nowhere. But enough people

Believe me, I'd be happy to be wrong and find a nice
easy way to pass NumPy arrays and such. Thanks.

Yes, it is with an additional typemap that checks the type of the data.
I don't think that it is a good idea for numpy to add such
multi-dispatching, it is not its job. There are a lot of ways to do it, and
besides it would be very cumb

Actually, when I want to do something really trivial, I use

No. Ctypes is only a way of loading C (and not C++) libraries in Python.
That makes it very simple, but not very powerful.

For comparison of ctypes and SWIG wrappers of a simple C++ codebase,
feel free to take a look at the code for scikits.ann
(http://scipy.org/scipy/scikits/wiki/AnnWrapper). The original wrapper
was written using SWIG and the numpy typemaps. Rob Hetland has coded
an almost-the-same API wrapper using

No, but you can use 'extern "C"' in you cpp file, if you have controle
over the file.

Much of it is also boiler-plate code, so it makes more sense to have
