When a slice view is made, a new memoryview object is created with a Py_buffer structure that needs to allocate it's own shape and strides (or something that will allow correct shape and strides to be reported to any consumer). In this way, there are two Py_buffer structures.
To be precise, the important thing is for the memoryview to allocate its own shape and strides. It's not strictly necessary to keep them internally in a Py_buffer struct, although that may be a convenient way to do it. -- 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
