I am converting a Cython memoryview to a numpy array (to be able to use it in pure Python code):
from libc.stdlib cimport realloc
cimport numpy as np
DTYPE = np.float64
ctypedef np.float64_t DTYPE_t
cpdef np.ndarray[DTYPE_t] compute(DTYPE_t[:,::1] data):
cdef unsigned int Nchannels = data.shape[0]
cdef unsigned int Ndata = data.shape[1]
cdef DTYPE_t* output = NULL
cdef DTYPE_t[::1] mv
output = <DTYPE_t*>realloc(output, Ndata*sizeof(output))
if not output:
raise MemoryError()
mv = <DTYPE_t[:Ndata]>output
mv[10:Ndata-10] = 0.0
# various calculations...
return np.asarray(mv, dtype=DTYPE, order='C')
It compiles, but the compiler gives the following warning:
/Users/vlad/anaconda/lib/python2.7/site-packages/numpy/core/include
/nump/npy_1_7_deprecated_api.h:15:2: warning:
"Using deprecated NumPy API, disable it by #defining NPY_NO_DEPRECATED_API NPY_1_7_API_VERSION" [-W#warnings]
I added the suggested directive in setup.py:
from distutils.core import setup, Extension
from Cython.Build import cythonize
import numpy
filename = 'agents3.pyx'
agents_module = Extension(
'Agents',
sources = [filename],
define_macros = [('NPY_NO_DEPRECATED_API', 'NPY_1_7_API_VERSION')],
include_dirs = [numpy.get_include()],
)
setup (name = 'Agents',
ext_modules = cythonize(agents_module)
)
Now it wouldn't compile, it says:
Vlads-MacBook-Pro:program vlad$ python setup.py build_ext --inplace
Compiling agents3.pyx because it changed.

What should I do? Is it OK to leave the deprecated API call as it is? It tries to acces the base
field -- but I am not doing it, it's Cython's fault. I simply converted a memoryview to a numpy array. Is there another, cleaner/safer way of doing it?
