It depends what you call "caring about" :-) But proprietary Unix C compilers generally don't mix very well with ctypes. > It would be fairly easy to use memoryview instead of ctypes.

Also, not using ctypes could make code theoretically more robust. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14059> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
