Hello all, In issue #5506, I originally proposed that io.BytesIO objects support the buffer protocol, to make it possible to access the internal buffer without intermediate copies.
Then it came to me then perhaps it would be too automatic. So I'm currently floating between: - add implicit buffer protocol support to BytesIO objects - add explicit buffer protocol support through the call of a getbuffer() method, which would return a small intermediate object supporting the buffer protocol on behalf of the original BytesIO object What do you think would be better? Thank you Antoine. _______________________________________________ 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
