[Numpy-discussion] Does NumPy support indirect memory views?

PEP 3118 [1] allows exposing multi-dimensional data that is organized as array of pointers. It appears, however that NumPy cannot consume such memory views. Looking at _array_from_buffer_3118() function [2], I don't see any attempt to process suboffsets. The documentation [3] is also silent on this issue. What is the status of indirect memory views/buffers support in NumPy? [1] http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3118/ [2] https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/4050ac73af79ae8cc513648ff02e9a22041501c4...
