As long as the resulting object is immutable, I don't see how this is a problem. It doesn't seem to be any worse than converting between e.g. a Python int and a C int, where there could be a change of internal representation, but the conceptual value remains the same. Also you've been doing this all along with char* -> bytes without complaining that a copy is being made. I don't see a reason to start worrying about it now. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Cython-dev mailing list [email protected] http://codespeak.net/mailman/listinfo/cython-dev
