In this particular case, I'm not sure I see how (the rest of) your patch fixes any remaining leak. We do seem to be having a disagreement about whether or not the reference to typecode can be pre-maturely destroyed, but this doesn't fit what I usually call a "memory leak." I think there may be some other cause for remaining leaks. > I can see that there might be an argument that PyArray_FromAny has the > semantics that it retains a reference to typecode unless it returns NULL > ... but I don't want to go there.

Thanks for all your help. -Travis _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
