New submission from Gregory P. Smith: I've converted _bsddb.c to use the py3k buffer API for all data and keys it takes as input. All tests now fail with this error:
BufferError: Cannot make this object read-only. This presumably results from this call: PyObject_GetBuffer(obj, view, PyBUF_LOCKDATA) I need to lock the data so that the GIL can be released during database operations (I/O). Allowing bytes objects to have an immutability or readonly bit (internal or otherwise) has been a recent topic on the python-3000 mailing list; that would allow bytes' buffer API to satisfy this GetBuffer LOCKDATA request... ---------- components: Interpreter Core keywords: py3k messages: 55333 nosy: gregory.p.smith priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: bytes buffer API needs to support PyBUF_LOCKDATA type: rfe versions: Python 3.0 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1035> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
