How can I create a NumPy array which is backed by ctypes data?
ie create a NumPy array from a ctypes one without any data copying?
So that changing an element of the NumPy array will alter the
underlying ctypes array. I have C structures that contain numerical
data and would like to access that data through the NumPy array
interface.
I have tried the following:
PyObject *make_dbl_array(double *data, int n)
{
npy_intp dim = n;
return PyArray_SimpleNewFromData(1, &dim, NPY_DOUBLE, (void *)data);
}
But when called via ctypes (with restype set to ctypes.py_object) it
gives a bus error.
