Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

It should be possible to easily make memoryview objects from pointer-able ctypes objects with an arbitrary length. In the same way we can currently usectypes.string_at() to createbytes objects. The advantage of usingmemoryview objects is that we can elide a buffer copy.

importctypesa= (ctypes.c_ubyte*10)()ctypes.buffer_at(a,10,True)[0]=1asserta[0]==1a[0]=2assertctypes.buffer_at(a,10,True)[0]==2

Has this already been discussed elsewhere?

This is a minor feature, which does not need previous discussion elsewhere
