New submission from Andrew McNabb <[email protected]>:
Ordinarily, pickling a numpypy ndarray object fails because this isn't
implemented
yet, which makes perfect sense:
>>>> pickle.dumps(A)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/lib64/pypy-1.9/lib-python/2.7/pickle.py", line 1417, in dumps
Pickler(file, protocol).dump(obj)
File "/usr/lib64/pypy-1.9/lib-python/2.7/pickle.py", line 224, in dump
self.save(obj)

raise TypeError, "can't pickle %s objects" % base.__name__
TypeError: can't pickle ndarray objects

However, pickling with protocol version -1 looks like it succeeds:
>>>> pickle.dumps(A, -1)
'\x80\x02cnumpypy\nndarray\nq\x00)\x81q\x01.'
>>>>
However, the output of this is basically gibberish and can't be loaded with
loads. It
might be better for dumps to crash than to give an invalid output.

crashing
