Class PyBuffer.Pointer

java.lang.Object

org.python.core.PyBuffer.Pointer

Enclosing interface:

PyBuffer

public static class PyBuffer.Pointer
extends Object

A class that references a byte[] array and a particular offset within it, as the return type for methods that give direct access to byte-oriented data exported by a Python object. In some contexts the consumer will be entitled to make changes to the contents of this array, and in others not. See PyBUF.isReadonly(). It is used by the Jython buffer API roughly where the CPython buffer API uses a C (char *) pointer.
