I have a patch to add format to datetime.time, .date, and .datetime. For non-empty formatspec's, I just pass on to .strftime. For empty formatspec's, it returns str(self).

What's the best way to call str(self)? I'm currently doing: if (PyUnicodeGetSize(format) == 0) return PyObjectCallMethod((PyObject *)self, "str", NULL); Although this works, calling self.str doesn't seem like the right thing to do. PyObjectStr is the C API equivalent of str, but I believe PyObjectUnicode is currently the right call for Py3k [1].

Of course! Thanks for the help, I was trying to over-complicate it.

Eric.
