I have a user who is reporting tests that are failing on his platform. I have
not been able to reproduce the error on my system, but working with him, we
have isolated the problem to unexpected results when PyArray_FromObject() is
called. Here is the chain of events:
In python, an integer is calculated. Specifically, it is
len(result.errors) + len(result.failures)
where result is a unit test result object from the unittest module. I had him
verify that this value was in fact a python integer. In my extension module,
this PyObject gets passed to the PyArray_FromObject() function in a routine
that comes from numpy.i. What I expect, and what I typically get, is a numpy
scalar array of type C long. I had my user print the result using
PyObject_Print() and what he got was
array([0:00:00], dtype=timedelta64[us])
I am stuck as to why this might be happening. Any ideas?
Thanks
