Cython stack-allocated struct/class

Foo.hpp

struct Foo {
    Foo() : x(0), y(0) {}
    Foo(int x, int y) : x(x), y(y) {}
    int x;
    int y;
};


inline Foo test_return() {
    Foo f(7, 4);
    return f;
}

Foo.pyx

cdef extern from "Foo.hpp":
    struct Foo:
        int x
        int y

    Foo test_return()


def other():
    cdef Foo f
    cdef Foo bar = test_return()
    print f.x, f.y
    print bar.x, bar.y

NB The struct/class must have a default constructor to allow stack allocation or to return as an lvalue.
