New issue 2831: memoryview format is incomplete https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/issues/2831/memoryview-format-is-incomplete
mattip: the following script ``` from __future__ import print_function import ctypes a = memoryview(ctypes.c_uint8()) b = memoryview(ctypes.pointer(ctypes.c_uint8())) print('uint8 format', a.format) print('&uint8 format', b.format) ``` on cpython 2 or 3 prints ``` uint8 format <B &uint8 format &<B ``` but on pypy 2 or 3.5 prints ``` uint8 format B &uint8 format B ``` the lack of `&` in the view to a pointer causes a numpy test to fail _______________________________________________ pypy-issue mailing list pypy-issue@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-issue
