Bug #69565 [NEW]: Fix createFromFormat prototype

From: rasmus Operating system: PHP version: master-Git-2015-05-03 (Git) Package: Date/time related Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Fix createFromFormat prototype Description: ------------ There is currently no way to portably write this: class myTime extends DateTime { public static function createFromFormat($format, $time, DateTimeZone $tz = null) { } } such that it doesn't generate a warning in PHP 5 and or PHP 7. Without "DateTimeZone $tz" it gives: Warning: Declaration of myTime::createFromFormat() should be compatible with DateTime::createFromFormat($format, $time, DateTimeZone $object = NULL) in /home/rasmus/cc on line 0 in PHP 7 and with it we get: Strict Standards: Declaration of myTime::createFromFormat() should be compatible with DateTime::createFromFormat($format, $time, $object = NULL) in /home/rasmus/cc on line 4 in PHP 5.6. We need a sensible upgrade path here which is probably to just simply drop the DateTimeZone restriction from the prototype. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69565&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=69565&r=mysqlcfg
