Hi there

I have a problem trying to use a template class based on Boost in Python. Here is the thing. I write this template:

template<typename T> class IMPDLLEXPORT MultiArray: public boost::multi_array<T,MULTIARRAY_DIM> { bla, bla .... }

The problem is that I am not able to get this class in Python. The only solution that I have found is to create another class that specifically instantiate the first one:

class IMPDLLEXPORT sillyclass { public: MultiArray<Float> data_; };

I've also tried this more clever solution, trying to add this line to kernel/pyext/IMP.i : %template(MultiArrayF) IMP::MultiArray<Float>;

but the compiler or SWIG (I don't know which one) complaints with:

kernel/pyext/IMP.i:114: Warning(401): Nothing known about base class 'boost::multi_array<float,3 >'. Ignored. kernel/pyext/IMP.i:114: Warning(401): Maybe you forgot to instantiate 'boost::multi_array<float,3 >' using %template.

Something that I don't know to fix. Help, please.
