segfault when pickling PyObject arrays

Hi, I've been having difficultly pickling arrays with the type PyObject using Numeric. I haven't tried it with MA but I assume the same problem exists. This script works ===================================== from cPickle import dump, load from Numeric import array, PyObject def pickleIt(obj, fileName): fp = open(fileName, 'w') dump(obj, fp) fp.close def loadIt(fileName): fp = open(fileName, 'r') obj = load(fp) fp.close() return obj a = array(['abc', 'def', 'ghi'], PyObject) pickleIt(a, 'test.pickle') This script segfaults ==================================== # ... same imports and func defs as above b = loadIt() print b ==================================== I first noticed this when trying to pickle arrays constructed from lists of mx.DateTime objects. Numeric 19.1.0 Python 2.1 final Linux 2.2.18 Is this a reproduceable bug or something unique to my setup? Tavis

Paul, I just installed 20.1.0b1 and got the same segfault. I'm using Suse 6.4 Note that if I dump it and load it from a single process it works fine. The error only occurs when I try to load it from a separate process. Tavis On Tuesday 05 June 2001 11:14, Paul F. Dubois wrote:
