Ah, that's the way. I was using _import_array() and that worked, so I changed that to import_array() and call it just once at the top of the .pyx file and now everything works very nice. Indeed, it is well documented in there, I didn't realize it written one paragraph above it. Thanks for help, all is fine now. Here is how to use that new code in hermes1d from C++: http://groups.google.com/group/hermes1d/msg/54f90f1aa740e93f one can now easily decide if to copy or not to copy the data when constructing the numpy arrays.
