Constructing an array from memory address

[Daniel Drake]

Hi,

I have an area of memory which is shared between processes (it is
actually a shared memory segment). The address of this memory is stored
in a python long variable, which I pass to various custom C/C++ python
modules.

I would like to construct a numpy array in this area. Is there any way I
can tell numpy to use a specific address (stored as a long) to use as
storage for the array? Is there any interest in adding this?

Thanks,
Daniel
