[f2py] wrapping a fortran library with f2py

> Hi all!
> 
> I am attempting to wrap the SHTOOLS [0] library using this [1] approach. I started out with a fairly simple routine, the PlmBar routine (attached).
> 
> I first generated a "first draft" of the interface, then made a few additions - notably dimension-ing the variable p explicitly, using depend().
> python module shtools ! in 
>    interface  ! in :shtools
>        subroutine plmbar(p, lmax, z, csphase, cnorm) ! in :shtools:PlmBar.f95
>            use shtools, only: csphase_default
>            integer, intent(in) :: lmax
>            real*8, intent(out), dimension((lmax + 1) * (lmax + 2) / 2), depend(lmax) :: p
>            real*8, intent(in) :: z
>            integer, optional, intent(in) :: csphase
>            integer, optional, intent(in) :: cnorm
>        end subroutine plmbar
>    end interface 
> end python module shtools
> 
> I compile with (gfortran 4.4 and):
> f2py -c shtools.pyf PlmBar.f95 SHTOOLS.f95
> Everything looks nice and dandy, except a lot of:
> Warning: Nonconforming tab character at (1)
> 
> Now, the compiled .so seems not to do what I would like it to:
> % python -c 'import shtools; shtools.plmbar(10, 0.3)'
> Error --- PlmBar
> P must be dimensioned as (LMAX+1)*(LMAX+2)/2 where LMAX is           10
> Input array is dimensioned            1
> So my dimensioning is off, somehow. What's going on?
> 
> Oh, and there is a "use shtools" so you need to generate the .mod file from SHTOOLS.f95 first.
