Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com> added the comment: Read the "Releasing the buffer" section in PEP 3118 again. Unless I'm misunderstanding you completely, the rules you're asking for are already in place: those fields are entirely the responsibility of the exporting object, and it needs to ensure they remain valid until the buffer is released.
Now, it may be that we haven't *implemented* this correctly or consistently in the builtin objects, in which case we should do something about it. But the rules are there. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10181> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
