Problem compiling pymat - invalid conversion

[Yves Roy]

Bonjour:

J' essaie de compiler pymat en utilisant le makefile offert sur le sire de BrainVISA et j' obtiens l' erreur suivante a plusieurs endroits:

invalid conversion from `const maybelong*' to `int*' (voir ci-bas)

Une idee du probleme ?
Merci bien
Yves

Hello,

My guess would be that the Numeric module installed in your python is not the same as the one we used. I don't remember exactly where ours comes from (it's Yann who managed python installation and setup), it's named Numeric-23.1 and its headers are not in <python_inc_dir>/numarray but in <python_inc_dir>/Numeric.
We'll try to make this clear next week...

Numeric is an obsolete package that is beign replaced by Numarray (see http://www.pfdubois.com/numpy). I did not installed Numarray to avoid compatibility problems with existing processes. I will have either to switch form Numeric to Numarray or to install both (the web site says it is possible).
