Actually, I'm talking about the general SWIG docs -- that have nothing to do with numpy at all. They've got you calling gcc on the command line, which I haven't done for years! But while we're on the topic, I started this be looking at the swig examples that come with numpy. It would be really great if there was a complete, very simple, sample or two complete with c code, *.i files, and setup.py. There are the tests, which built and ran fine for me, but that's a bit of a complicated mess. Anyway, I'm working on some simple samples -- I'll contribute them when I get them working! OT: The struggle at the moment is building a C++ extension -- if I use straight C, a trivial sample works, if I call the file *.cpp, swig it with -c++, I get a *_wrap.cxx file that won't build. Do I have to do something different in the setup.py? -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list [email protected] http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
