How can I reshape TF_Tensor* using Tensorflow's C_api as it's being done in C++?



TensorShape inputShape({1,1,80,80});

Tensor inputTensor;
Tensor newTensor;

bool result = inputTensor->CopyFrom(newTensor, inputShape);


I don't see a similar method using the tensorflow's c_api.

          Tensorflow C API operates with a (data,dims) model - treating data as a flat raw array supplied with the needed dimensions.



          Step 1: Allocating a new Tensor



          Have a look at TF_AllocateTensor(ref):



          TF_CAPI_EXPORT extern TF_Tensor* TF_AllocateTensor(TF_DataType,
          const int64_t* dims,
          int num_dims, size_t len);


          Here:





          1. TF_DataType: The TF equivalent of the data type you need from here.


          2. dims: Array corresponding to dimensions of tensor to be allocated eg. {1, 1, 80, 80}


          3. num_dims: length of dims(4 above)


          4. len: reduce(dims, *): i.e. 1*1*80*80*sizeof(DataType) = 6400*sizeof(DataType).


          Step 2: Copying data



          // Get the tensor buffer
          auto buff = (DataType *)TF_TensorData(output_of_tf_allocate);
          // std::memcpy() ...


          Here is some sample code from a project I did a while back on writing a very light Tensorflow C-API Wrapper.



          So, essentially your reshape will involve allocating your new tensor and copying the data from the original tensor into buff.



          The Tensorflow C API isnt meant for regular usage and thus is harder to learn + lacking documentation. I figured a lot of this out with experimentation. Any suggestions from the more experienced developers out there?
