Is this a bug? If not, how do I override __str__ on a unicode derived class?
class S(str):
def __str__(self): return '__str__ overridden'
class U(unicode):
def __str__(self): return '__str__ overridden'
def __unicode__(self): return u'__unicode__ overridden'
s = S()
u = U()
print 's:', s
print "str(s):", str(s)
print 's substitued is "%s"\n' % s
print 'u:', u
print "str(u):", str(u)
print 'u substitued is "%s"' % u
-----------------------------------------------------
s: __str__ overridden
str(s): __str__ overridden
s substitued is "__str__ overridden"
u:
str(u): __str__ overridden
u substitued is ""
Results are identical for 2.4.2 and 2.5c2 (running under windows).
