You can take a look at the examples in numscons sources
(sources/tests/ctypesext).

In the setup.py, you call config.add_sconscript('SConstruct')

And in the scons script, you do:

from numscons import GetNumpyEnvironment
env = GetNumpyEnvironment(ARGUMENTS)

env.NumpyCtypes('foo', source = ['foo.c'])

Note that although this has not changed since it existed, I do not
guarantee API stability at this point.

cheers,

David
