The issue tracker for CPython [if I read it correctly] lists datetime.strptime as a new feature to be supported in python 2.7 and 3.2. It is not documented in the Python 2.6 manual. The current way of doing it seems to be:
>>> import datetime >>> import time >>> d = datetime(*(time.strptime(date_string, format)[0:6])) I have not tested that, I just cut it out of the issue tracker. And, Yes, you are running an obsolete version of IronPython. You should upgrade to 2.6. But that will not fix your problem, since datetime.strptime is not present in the current version, either. -- Vernon Cole On Mon, Jun 7, 2010 at 1:56 PM, Peter Masiar <[email protected]> wrote: > Seems like datetime in Ironpython has only strftime, but no strptime? > > IronPython 2.0.3 (2.0.0.0) on .NET 2.0.50727.3603 > Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>>> import datetime >>>> dir(datetime.datetime) > ['CompareTo', '__add__', '__class__', '__delattr__', '__doc__', '__eq__', > '__ge_ > _', '__getattribute__', '__getnewargs__', '__gt__', '__hash__', '__init__', > '__l > e__', '__lt__', '__ne__', '__new__', '__nonzero__', '__radd__', '__reduce__', > '_ > _reduce_ex__', '__repr__', '__rsub__', '__setattr__', '__str__', '__sub__', > 'ast > imezone', 'combine', 'ctime', 'date', 'day', 'dst', 'fromordinal', > 'fromtimestam > p', 'hour', 'isocalendar', 'isoformat', 'isoweekday', 'max', 'microsecond', > 'min > ', 'minute', 'month', 'now', 'replace', 'resolution', 'second', 'strftime', > 'tim > e', 'timetuple', 'timetz', 'today', 'toordinal', 'tzinfo', 'tzname', > 'utcfromtim > estamp', 'utcnow', 'utcoffset', 'utctimetuple', 'weekday', 'year'] >>>> > > Or do I have wrong/obsolete IronPython?
