Sebastian Berg <sebast...@sipsolutions.net> added the comment:
I went through Python, `array` seems to not break the logic. pickling has a comment which specifically wants to run into the argument parsing corner case above (I am not sure that it is really important). However, `Modules/_testbuffer.c` (which is just test) actually does allocate new memory for the buffer! I can be convinced that this is how it is supposed to be, but right now I am still not quite. The main idea is efficient no-copy data sharing. It is always possible to create a `to_memoryview()` method if a realloc was desired/necessary... ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39471> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
