I think the low-level API I have in the sandbox fits this need, or at
least
provides some of the basics. I'd love to see that morph into
something that
we can all use to connect numpy to the C++ template library of our
choice,
Yes, that would be wonderful, indeed. Maybe a GSoC project?
Excellent idea. Let's see whether anyone is interested to pick it up
(I'd be happy to mentor it). If not, perhaps we can make progress
nonetheless.
I'd be happy to help as well, though I don't really have the experience
with boost development necessary to qualify as a mentor. I'll start by
putting together a README file for the sandbox library over the next few
days so others can get a better idea of where we might be starting from.
Aside from direct data access (and the other things I have implemented
already), what else should such a library do? One thing I can think of
off the top of my head is automatic conversion for Numpy scalar types -
I'm pretty sure someone else on this list has implemented that
somewhere, but it's not present in the sandbox library.
