Besides, the PY_ARRAY_TYPES_PREFIX business is a lot more crufty. I'm not opposed to putting a *short* prefix in front of everything (the Int32, Float64, stuff came from numarray which now has it's own back-ward compatible header where it could be placed now anyway). Perhaps npy_ would be a suitable prefix. That way we could get rid of the cruft entirely. I suppose we could also provide the noprefix.h header that defines the old un-prefixed cases for "backwards NumPy compatibility". -Travis Using Tomcat but need to do more?
