You could use ctypes but you would also need to write some C wrapper
functions that can take void* and operate on the member functions and
operators of the MVectorArray. Ctypes only uses C binary interface calling
conventions. But the minimum functionality could be exposed such as a
count(ptr) and a index(ptr, i) so that in ctypes you could for loop over
the range of indices.

If you want to get your cpp variable content on the fly, then I'd go for
