I'm bringing this over from the NumPy list. I'm guessing this behaviour is
there so that subclasses written in Cython won't break? Perhaps the error
message could at least be made clearer ("please recompile") + perhaps only
do this check for types which are subclassed?Dag Sverre On Sun, Dec 6, 2009 at 07:53, Gael Varoquaux <gael.varoqu...@normalesup.org> wrote: > I have a lot of code that has stopped working with my latest SVN pull to > numpy. > > * Some compiled code yields an error looking like (from memory): > > "incorrect type 'numpy.ndarray'" > > Rebuilding it is sufficient. Is this Cython or Pyrex code? Unfortunately Pyrex checks the size of types exactly such that even if you extend the type in a backwards compatible way, it will raise that exception. This behavior has been inherited by Cython. I have asked for this feature to be removed, or at least turned into a >= check, but it got no traction. -- Robert Kern _______________________________________________ Cython-dev mailing list Cython-dev@codespeak.net http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/cython-dev
