[Numpy-discussion] ANNOUNCE: numarray-0.6

[Sebastian Haase]

Congratulations ! And thanks for the nice work -- I'm 
going upgrade tomorrow...
And this time even the new documentation is already online 
;-)   [It's just somewhat sad that google still points to 
the 'numarray has moved!' page]

Question: In an email from May-20th (actually regarding 
rel.0.5) Todd wrote:
"However, there is a new API function which I added in 
response to your
  last post: NA_NewAllFromBuffer() which enables you to 
create arrays in C
  from existing buffer objects rather than just C arrays."

The 0.6 documentation doesn't mention that function - for 
now I probably have to read the source, right ?

BTW - We are already using a self-made version of that - 
allowing us to access the CCD images that get acquired 
from our Microspcope (mostly C++ code) as a 16-bit 
unsigned int numarray - in real time! --- It's just great, 
and people love it.

Thanks,
Sebastian Haase
