In fact, the PEP still has the issue of who manages the memory for the format-description string when it is returned. The easiest thing to do is to return a Python String and let reference counting handle the memory management. What if we were also to return from the shape call a Python C-Object that loosely wrapped the shape and strides c-arrays. Then, it would free the memory on deallocation. A C-API call that created such a C-Object from two arrays of integers could be provided to make it easy. -Travis _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
