[Numpy-discussion] Anyone have a well-tested SWIG-based C++ STL valarray <=> numpy.array typemap to share?

Blitz++ is more or less avandoned. It uses indexes than can be not-portable
between 32bits platforms and 64bits ones.


Is there another alternative? At the moment, all we need is a one-d

The Boost.Array is a fixed-size array, determined at compile-time, not
interesting there, I suppose. Multiarrays are what you're looking for.
Besides, it is not needed to build Boost to use them (Boost needs
compilation for some libraries like Regex, program_options or Python).
