Re: [LabPython-Users] Numpy and Scipy

[Rolf K. <rol...@ci...>]

Hi Glen,

I'm quite new to LabPython and am having trouble getting my program to work
when compiled and called from LabVIEW.  LabVIEW loads, compiles and sends
variables to the program without problem but the program won't get past the
first function.  The function uses numpy routines and the only thing I can
think of is that maybe there's a problem with using numpy and scipy in
LabVIEW.  Does anyone know if this is the case?

Indeed it is. I believe it is not so much the numpy itself if I remember
correctly but the fact that I couldn't see an easy way of supporting numpy
(and other optional packages) datatypes in my C binding without compiling
those packages into LabPython itself.
 
If you look at the mailing archive there was a similar inquiry a few months
back and the solution was to use normal numeric datatype by casting instead
and live with the implicit conversion this will cause.
