Jan Hosang <jan.hos...@gmail.com> added the comment: I stumbled upon the following function:
static Py_ssize_t convertbuffer(PyObject *arg, void **p, char **errmsg) in Python/getargs.c The first thing the function does is checking if the object implements the old buffer api, but also fails if pb->bf_releasebuffer != NULL. So I guess it's also making sure the new buffer api is not implemented. What's the thought behind this? Removing that condition fixes three of the failing tests but breaks none. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6071> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
