Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-08-17 10:12:34] derick@php.net I have a fix in the works for this. Code works, but need some more test cases and checking for memory leaks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-20 00:43:59] rasmus@php.net Hrm.. In my simple test it worked. It was zone_search() that was failing. With that hack this works fine: $tz = new DateTimeZone('EST5EDT'); echo $tz->getName()."\n"; $date = new DateTime('2000-01-01', $tz); $date = $date->modify('+6 months'); echo $date->format('Y-m-d') . "\n"; But true, looking closer at it, $tz->getTranstitions() doesn't return anything. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-19 00:02:31] yohgaki@php.net Note: JST (Japanese Standard Time) is used to work with older PHP also. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-18 16:04:17] derick@php.net It doesn't work, there are some other bits of code that only let allow through IDs with a / in them. I've moved this to the top of my todo list, so hopefully get to it soon. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-07-18 15:51:51] rasmus@php.net Derick, wouldn't the easiest solution just be to add these to timezonemap.h? As in, for EST5EDT it would be something like: { "edt", 1, -14400, "EST5EDT" }, { "est", 1, -18000, "EST5EDT" }, ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
