Category: Python Interpreter Core Group: Python 3000 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Christian Heimes (tiran) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: struni: str() doesn't call __str__() of subclasses of str Initial Comment: In the py3k-struni branch the str() constructor doesn't use __str__ when the argument is an instance of a subclass of str. A user defined string can't change __str__(). It works in Python 2.5 and in the p3yk branch.
