From: rkumar at msgme dot com Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.2.0 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: There should be a way to create DateTime object from UTC timestamp. Description: ------------ The constructor for DateTime object currently takes a string as a parameter. In most of the scenarios that I have encountered I need to create a DateTime object from UTC timestamp. Can the constructor be changed to accept string or integer? -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40171&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=40171&r=mysqlcfg
