Maintaining a PyDict instance to map from view pointers to shapes and strides info doesn't strike me as a "complex scheme" though.
I don't see why a given buffer provider should ever need more than one set of shape/strides arrays at a time. It can allocate them on creation, reallocate them as needed if the shape of its internal data changes, and deallocate them when it goes away. If you are creating view objects that present slices or some other alternative perspective, then the view object itself is a buffer provider and should maintain shape/stride arrays for its particular view of the underlying object. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
