[Numpy-discussion] Int bitsize in python and c

Hello,

I work on a 64bit machine with 64bits enable fedora on it.

I just discovered that numpy.int on the python part are 64bits ints, while
npy_int in the C api are 32bits ints.

I can live with it, but it seems to be different on 32bit machines, hence I
wonder what is the right way to do when retrieving an array from python to C.

Here is what I use now:
data_pyarray = (PyArrayObject *)PyArray_ContiguousFromObject(data_list,
PyArray_INT, 1, 2);

but that implies that I send np.int32 arrays to the C part.

Should I use longs instead ?

Regards,
Martin
