Have you seen the SWIG typemaps that come with numpy?:

...\site-packages\numpy\doc\swig

They are designed to work with plain old fashioned C arrays(pointers), 
but you can either learn form them, or write a little C++ that takes a C 
pointer and size, creates a vector, and calls your existing functions.
