Martin Panter added the comment: Without blocking the C implementation _datetime, I get both extremes causing OverflowError:
>>> import datetime, time, os >>> os.environ["TZ"] = "EST+05EDT,M3.2.0,M11.1.0" >>> time.tzset() >>> t = datetime.datetime(2,1,1) >>> s = t.timestamp() >>> s -122233584944.0 >>> datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(s) OverflowError: timestamp out of range for platform time_t >>> t = datetime.datetime(9998,12,12) >>> s = t.timestamp() >>> s 760175195728.0 >>> datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(s) OverflowError: timestamp out of range for platform time_t When I repeated the test with sys["_datetime"] = None, both t.timestamp() calls raised OverflowError, which I assume is expected. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24773> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
