How about doing PyObject_GetBuffer(b, &buf, PyBUF_WRITABLE); view = PyMemoryView_FromBuffer(&buf); // readinto view PyBuffer_Release(&buf); Would attempts to access a "leaked" reference to view now result in ValueError("operation forbidden on released memoryview object")? If so then I think this would be safe. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15903> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
