[Pyrex] Help for public Python extension types.

[Daehyok Shin]

Thanks, Robert.
Unfortunately, your suggestion did not work.

I found the cause of the problem is the new syntax required for
extension types under a package directory. The files work well even
without the cimport statement if I test the files in a non-package
directory. But, once I put the files under a package, the pyx file
could not find its corresponding pxd file.

I am not familiar with this topic because it is a new syntax required
by a recent Pyrex version.
So, let me ask again with a more specific question.

If the class A is supposed to be imported as xxx.yyy.zzz.test.A,
how should I change the source code in the files?

Any comments will be appreciated.
