_wrap_strftimein the pure-Pythondatetimeimplementation readsobject.yearin its year-normalization branch. Whenstrftimeis called on adatetime.time(which has no.year), this raisesAttributeError: 'time' object has no attribute 'year'for the%Y,%G,%Cand
%Fdirectives. The crash happens in the branch guard itself, before the_need_normalize_century()platform check, so it occurs on every platform.The C accelerator is correct: a
timehas no date, sostrftimefills the1900-01-01 placeholder and returns
'1900','19','1900-01-01'and'1900'respectively.
The year being formatted is
timetuple[0], which is1900for atimeandobject.yearfor adate/datetime. This replacesobject.yearwithtimetuple[0]at both occurrences, fixingtimeand leavingdate/datetimebehaviour unchanged: the new pure-Python output equals the long-standing C
accelerator output.
Tests in
TestTime.test_strftimeassert the four directives, and run under boththe C and pure implementations via the
test_datetimeparametrization.
