I'm having a devil of a time getting serialized data into and out of a database (MySQL in this case) using python and MySQLdb.
I have some C code that has its own serialization/deserialization functions, which we've wrapped using SWIG. I am able to save the serialized C structs to disk but when I try to write the exact same data to MySQL and pull it back out, I'm getting some strange results. The data comes back looking like this: array('c', '\x01r\x01\x00\x...) Is this a python buffer, or what? How can I access the data in there? I've tried using [1] but that doesn't seem to work. Thanks... - Michael
