[SciPy-dev] New scipy core requires rebuild of extension modules

[Travis Oliphant]

Version 1484 (current SVN) of scipy core requires a complete rebuild 
because of changes to the C-API.

Sorry about that.  I've changed the version number to 0.7 to reflect the 
need to rebuild extension modules.  

I'm almost done with the C-API documentation and so hopefully shouldn't 
have to change things much more.

The new call is

multi = PyArray_MultIterNew(int n, ...)

which returns a PyArrayMultiIterObject * for easier access to array 
broadcasting.  Simply call the function with your Python Objects as 
arguments.  In return you get an object that can be used like:

i=PyArray_MultiIter_SIZE(multi);
while(i--) {
    /* deal with PyArray_MultiIter_DATA(multi, n) which is a pointer to 
the data to use */
    PyArray_MultiIter_NEXT(multi);
}
