Hi all, PIL 1.1.6 final was just released, which includes support for the numpy array interface. However, this just came out on the list: Zachary Pincus wrote:

- The 'fromarray' command is a bit broken in Image.py: Specifically, the following stanza is incorrect -- if mode is None: typestr = arr['typestr'] if not (typestr[0] == '|' or typestr[0] == _ENDIAN or typestr[1:] not in ['u1', 'b1', 'i4', 'f4']): raise TypeError("cannot handle data-type") typestr = typestr[:2] if typestr == 'i4': ...

The error is that 'typestr = typestr[:2]' should instead be 'typestr = typestr[1:]'

that code was contributed by the numpy developers, but it sure looks broken. hmm. </F> Maybe someone who knows better than me can send a not to the PIL list. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception Chris.Barker@noaa.gov
