I am using Python to read from a binary device file which requires that all read sizes are in 8byte multiples and the user's buffer is 8byte aligned.Is there a way that I can get file.read() to use an 8byte aligned buffer?
For control at that level you'd be better off using direct system calls, i.e. os.open() and os.read(), then you can read exacty the number of bytes you want. -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
