[Matrix-SIG] SWIG with recent NumPy

[Johann Hibschman]

Hello,

I'm trying to use SWIG to automatically wrap some C routines and
return the results as NumPy arrays (converting from my own pet vector
structure.)  I have typemaps that worked with old versions of NumPy,
but now I have had to insert a call to "import_array()" by hand in the
SWIG-generated C module in the module initialization section.

This means (AFAIK) that I have to hand-patch the C every time I run
SWIG.  That's bad.  Is there any way to get SWIG to insert the needed
"import_array()" call automatically?  Also, are there standard NumPy
SWIG typemaps?

Lots of questions, as ususal.  ;-)
