Apparently they show the same behavior as for arbitrary user defined classes. If my assumption is correct, instead of adding a special treatment for the comparison operators wrt. DateTimeImmutable objects, it might be considered to add a magic method __compare(). However, I'm not sure, if this fits well with type juggling. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-08-25 14:03:21] mail at roland-ramthun dot de Description: ------------ Comparison for DateTimeImmutable doesn't work. The same example with DateTime objects works. Test script: --------------- $a = new DateTimeImmutable('today'); $b = new DateTimeImmutable('tomorrow'); if ($a < $b) { print("yay"); } Expected result: ---------------- yay Actual result: -------------- no output ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65548&edit=1
