2011-12-30 Thread Tim Golden
Tim Golden m...@timgolden.me.uk added the comment: Well, the code in 2.x is quite different from that in 3.x. Specifically, the 2.x code assumes that, for Windows, no year before 1900 is valid for any of the formats. So a simple check throws a ValueError for tm_year 0. For 3.x the assumption

Tim Golden m...@timgolden.me.uk added the comment: Yes, sorry. I wasn't clear enough. There *are* still checks in the 3.x code (for the kind of thing you're showing). But the checks assume 1000 = year = maxint is ok for all format parameters on Windows. In fact, for %y, only 1900 = year is ok

Tim Golden m...@timgolden.me.uk added the comment: This is happening on Windows x86 against the current tip. The MS C runtime can handle older dates; it's just that we're taking 1900 off the year at some point. (At least, I think that's what's happening). FWIW you only need time.strftime
