We're going to fix this bug a couple of others (in addition to the couple fixed in the current sources) and release an RC2.
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Glenn Jones Sent: Thursday, November 20, 2008 4:33 AM To: users@lists.ironpython.com Subject: [IronPython] Blocker: subclasses of float have trouble with __int__ and __str__ Hello guys, On the latest code drop (43741) it seems that something is broken in subclasses of floats. class MyFloatType(float): def __new__(cls): return float.__new__(cls, 0.0) def __repr__(self): return "MyFloat" __str__ = __repr__ >>>MyFloat = MyFloatType() >>>int(MyFloat) TypeError: expected int, got p This is one can be worked around by having an __int__ defined. However, >>>str(MyFloat) '0.0' >>>repr(MyFloat) 'MyFloat' Subclassing longs and ints in a similar way has the correct behaviour. This is nasty and a blocker for us. We've raised this as Issue 19675 Glenn & Orestis
