[issue19666] Format string for ASCII unicode or bytes-like object as readonly buffer

2013-11-20 Thread Christian Heimes 

New submission from Christian Heimes:

I could use a format string for either ASCII unicode or bytes buffer in a few 
places, e.g. 

a* (bytes, bytearray, bytes-like object or ASCII unicode) [Py_buffer]

Like y* it should handle PyBUF_SIMPLE with 'C' contiguous but it should only 
accept one dimensional buffers. In case the object is an ASCII PyUnicode_Object 
it should return its ASCII data as Py_buffer.

2013-11-20 Thread Antoine Pitrou 

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

It seems this would add a dependency to the unicode implementation (other 
unicode representations may not allow you to take a Py_buffer to the ASCII 
data).

Where do you plan to use this new format? Can you please give examples?

Py_buffer and PyArg_ParseTuple() are very specific to CPython.

Don't we need to discuss it more before triage it as "patch required"?

Gregory P. Smith  added the comment:

"needs patch" doesn't mean it has been accepted, it's just a common state for 
issues where nobody has written any code even as a proof of concept.

Christian - is this still desired?
