[Numpy-discussion] fromstring doesn't accept buffer object

[Todd Miller]

This is what I see this morning using CVS:

>>> from numarray import *
>>> s = "thisthis"
>>> fromstring(buffer(s), shape=(2,), type=Int32)
array([1936287860, 1936287860])

What kind of failure are you seeing?

Regards,
Todd
