Travis Oliphant <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: I'm sorry that I was unavailable for comment during July and August as it looks like a lot of decisions were made that have changed the semantics a bit. I'm still trying to figure out why the decisions were made that were made.
I get the impression that most of the problems are related to objects incorrectly managing their exported buffers, but there may be some semantic issues related to "t#" that were not conceived of during the many discussions surrounding the design of PEP 3118. I'm not convinced that Py_buffer should have grown a link to an object. I think this is a shortcut solution due to misuse of the protocol that may have unfortunate consequences. I'm not sure where PyBuffer_Release came from. I can't find it in the PEP and don't remember what it's purpose is. Did I add it or did somebody elese? _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3139> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
