When using
opengl-accelerate, many operations will fail if passed anumpy.arraywhich is contiguous, but is not writeable, e.g.:results in:
This is because
accelerate/src/numpy_formathandler.pyxuses thePyArray_ISCARRAYfunction to test whether an array is contiguous. However,PyArray_ISCARRAYalso tests whether an array is writeable.This PR simply changes
numpy_formathandler.pyxso it usesPyArray_ISCARRAY_ROrather thanPyArray_ISCARRAY, so that read-only arrays are accepted.This issue has arisen in my work due to a recent change in
numpywhich causes data loaded vianp.frombufferto be set as read-only.The change to
numpy_formathandler.pyxseems to work fine for me, although I am not sure whether some circumstances do actually require arrays to be writeable. If this is the case, please disregard this PR.
