From: Operating system: * PHP version: 5.3SVN-2010-05-20 (SVN) Package: Date/time related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:DateTime::createFromFormat does not match documentation
Description: ------------ The manual for DateTime::createFromFormat says: Format accepted by date(). If format does not contain the character ! then portions of the date/time value specified in format but not specified in time will be set to the current system time. However if you specify format like "d-m-Y H:i" and provide datetime string that does not contain time, parsing would fail - even though the manual says if time string does not contain parts from format it should use current system. Test script: --------------- <?php $date = DateTime::createFromFormat("d-m-Y H:i", "25-10-2007"); var_dump($date); Expected result: ---------------- Something like: object(DateTime)#1 (3) { ["date"]=> string(19) "2007-10-25 18:58:31" ["timezone_type"]=> int(3) ["timezone"]=> string(19) "America/Los_Angeles" } Actual result: -------------- bool(false) -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51866&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=51866&r=mysqlcfg
