Message 144817 - Python tracker (original) (raw)

The automatic conversion of 'u' to 'I' or 'L' causes test_buffer (PEP-3118 repo) to fail:

Not implemented formats. Ugly, but inevitable. This is the same as

issue #2531: equality is also used for membership testing and must

return a result.

a = array.array('u', 'xyz') v = memoryview(a) self.assertNotEqual(v, a) self.assertNotEqual(a, v)

I don't understand: a buffer format is a format for the struct module, or for the array module?
