From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Operating system: MacOS X 10.0.2 (Darwin) PHP version: 4.0.5 PHP Bug Type: Date/time related Bug description: Bug in "mktime()" on values out of bounds see Bug id #8828, too! On PHP documantation: mktime(hour,min,sec, year,0,mon) refers the last day of month 'mon-1'. On MacOS X this failed, there it refers the first day of month 'mon' and mktime(hour,min,sec, year,-1,mon) refers the last day of month 'mon-1'. On MacOS X 10.0.2 (Darwin 1.3): 02.03 --> 983487600 --> 02.03 01.03 --> 983401200 --> 01.03 00.03 --> 983401200 --> 01.03 -1.03 --> 983314800 --> 28.02 -2.03 --> 983228400 --> 27.02 i have check some UNIX-systems and i haven't found any man-page, where is describe what should be happend on "tm_mday" <= 0. The problem is happend on all values out of bounds, when using mktime()! IMHO this is a undocumented feature, which is used by PHP. man mktime (Linux 2.2.13) tm_mday The day of the month, in the range 1 to 31. Sun Release 4.1 int tm_mday; /* day of month (1 - 31) */ SunOS 5.5 int tm_mday; /* day of the month - [1, 31] */ HP-UX Release 10.20 int tm_mday; /* day of month - [1,31] */ HP-UX Release 11.00 int tm_mday; /* day of month - [1,31] */ AIX 4.3.2 int tm_mday; /* Day of month (1 - 31) */ Darwin 1.0.2 int tm_mday; /* day of month (1 - 31) */ I think i should by much better to check mktime() on configure and set a #define for compilation. Only on "datetime.c" must be made a patch to support MacOS X's / Darwin's mktime()-systemcall, i think! Patch to make php_mktime() more compatible [i think it is not complete for the whole PHP4-project]. It includes a time correction for values less then 1 on "mday", "hour", "min", "sec", "mon"!! *** ext/standard/datetime.c.orig Fri Dec 8 12:38:02 2000 --- ext/standard/datetime.c Sun Apr 15 17:28:46 2001 *************** *** 81,87 **** struct tm *ta, tmbuf; time_t t; int i, gmadjust, seconds, arg_count = ZEND_NUM_ARGS(); ! int is_dst = -1; if (arg_count > 7 || zend_get_parameters_array_ex(arg_count,arguments) == FAILURE) { WRONG_PARAM_COUNT; --- 81,87 ---- struct tm *ta, tmbuf; time_t t; int i, gmadjust, seconds, arg_count = ZEND_NUM_ARGS(); ! int is_dst = -1, val, chgsecs = 0; if (arg_count > 7 || zend_get_parameters_array_ex(arg_count,arguments) == FAILURE) { WRONG_PARAM_COUNT; *************** *** 148,172 **** - (((*arguments[5])->value.lval > 1000) ? 1900 : 0); /* fall-through */ case 5: ! ta->tm_mday = (*arguments[4])->value.lval; /* fall-through */ case 4: ! ta->tm_mon = (*arguments[3])->value.lval - 1; /* fall-through */ case 3: ! ta->tm_sec = (*arguments[2])->value.lval; /* fall-through */ case 2: ! ta->tm_min = (*arguments[1])->value.lval; /* fall-through */ case 1: ! ta->tm_hour = (*arguments[0])->value.lval; /* fall-through */ case 0: break; } ! seconds = mktime(ta); if (is_dst == -1) is_dst = ta->tm_isdst; --- 148,182 ---- - (((*arguments[5])->value.lval > 1000) ? 1900 : 0); /* fall-through */ case 5: ! val = (*arguments[4])->value.lval; ! if (val < 1) { chgsecs += (1-val) * 60*60*24; val = 1; } ! ta->tm_mday = val; /* fall-through */ case 4: ! val = (*arguments[3])->value.lval - 1; ! while (val < 0) { val += 12; ta->tm_year--; } ! ta->tm_mon = val; /* fall-through */ case 3: ! val = (*arguments[2])->value.lval; ! if (val < 1) { chgsecs += (1-val); val = 1; } ! ta->tm_sec = val; /* fall-through */ case 2: ! val = (*arguments[1])->value.lval; ! if (val < 1) { chgsecs += (1-val) * 60; val = 1; } ! ta->tm_min = val; /* fall-through */ case 1: ! val = (*arguments[0])->value.lval; ! if (val < 1) { chgsecs += (1-val) * 60*60; val = 1; } ! ta->tm_hour = val; /* fall-through */ case 0: break; } ! seconds = mktime(ta) - chgsecs; if (is_dst == -1) is_dst = ta->tm_isdst; -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=10686&edit=1 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
