Issue1828

There are some problems when inheriting from Jython. What I've noticed is that Jython adds 'L' at the end of the string representation and crashes for bool().

To reproduce:

1) Assume we have a file with this content:

    class X(long):
        pass

    print 42, X(42)
    print bool(42), bool(X(42))


2) Run with Python (tested with 2.5-2.7):

    42 42
    True True


3) Run with Jython (tested with 2.5.1 and 2.5.2):

    42 42L
    True
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "test.py", line 6, in <module>
        print bool(42), bool(X(42))
    RuntimeError: maximum recursion depth exceeded

fixed in 68626d94a76d and 825546a4600e, thanks Pekka!

Great to see issues fixed so fast!

If someone is interested, it's possible to workaround the problems also with the currently releases 2.5 versions so that the code is compatible with CPython:

    class X(long):
        def __str__(self):
            return long.__str__(self).rstrip('L')
        def __nonzero__(self):
            return bool(long(self))
