I want to access a C function that returns a struct containing double arrays (where the lengths of these arrays is given by other int members of the struct) from python. The dec

Cython rules:

cdef extern from "the header.h":

ctypedef struct element:
  int dim
  int vertices
  int quadrature_degree
  int polynomial_degree
  int ngi
  int quadrature_familiy
  double *weight
  double *l
  double *n
  double *dn

void get_element(int dim, int vertices, int quad_degree, int poly_degree, element* e)

and then you can interface it, from python space
