These functions now behave consistently with ``np.copy()``. +Multifield Indexing of Structured Arrays will still return a copy +----------------------------------------------------------------- +The change that multi-field indexing of structured arrays returns a view +instead of a copy is pushed back to 1.16. A new method +``numpy.lib.recfunctions.repack_fields`` has been introduced to help mitigate +the effects of this change, which can be used to write code compatible with +both numpy 1.15 and 1.16. For more information on how to update code to account +for this future change see "basics/structured arrays/accessing multiple fields" +in the user guide. + C API changes ============= |
