Re: [igraph] iGraph and Cython

[Tamás Nepusz]

Dear Johannes,

I've never tried to connect igraph with Cython so far, so I don't know whether 
it's of much use to you, but maybe this helps. igraph.Graph objects in Python 
have a hidden method called __graph_as_cobject__ which returns the pointer to 
the wrapped igraph_t structure as a Python CObject. Extracting the pointer from 
the CObject should get you a void*, which then you can cast into an igraph_t* 
and invoke an igraph method on it from C.

Best,
Tamas
