New submission from Barry Alan Scott <barry-sc...@users.sourceforge.net>:
The result of time.strftime seems to be in the locale encoding but this is not pointed out in the documentation. Ideally an example like this would be in the docs to show how to deal with strftime output: import locale import time locale_encoded_time = time.strftime( '%d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S' ) language, encoding = locale.getdefaultlocale() unicode_time = locale_encoded_time.decode( encoding ) ---------- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation messages: 86946 nosy: barry-scott, georg.brandl severity: normal status: open title: strftime docs do not explain locale affect on result string versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5904> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
