Since version 2.4 Tensorflow moved to the new way to store string tensors.
Earlier
std::string
was used an array of strings was encoded as an array of 8-byte offsets followed by string data. With the current design of thetensorflow::tstring
creating tensor withNewTensor
function could allocate string in two ways (description of the tstring types):TF_TSTR_SMALL
- the contents of strings less than 22-bytes are stored in the TF_TString structTF_TSTR_LARGE
- Heap allocated stringThe second case assumes that, in addition to TF_DeleteTensor, the string should be deallocated with TF_TString_Dealloc. This situation wasn't handled in the Go bindings.
