Stefan Krah added the comment: I would commit this, except that I'm not too happy with the use of the term "bytes-like" in general. Yesterday I mistyped this:
>>> import ctypes >>> x = ctypes.c_double >>> m = memoryview(x) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: memoryview: a bytes-like object is required, not '_ctypes.PyCSimpleType' The previous error message was (changed in #16518) was: "_ctypes.PyCSimpleType does not support the buffer interface". Which I find much clearer. Memoryviews (for better or worse, but PEP-3118 was accepted) are Mini-NumPy-arrays. I'm still not sure if we should hide that from users. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23756> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
