Bug #70502 [NEW]: Kathmandu time zone offset is wrong
From: phil dot davis at inf dot org
Operating system: Multiple
PHP version: 5.5.29
Package: Date/time related
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:Kathmandu time zone offset is wrong
Description:
------------
NPT is supposed to be the abbreviation for Nepal Time (Asia/Kathmandu)
http://www.timeanddate.com/time/zones/
but timezone_name_from_abbr("NPT") returns:
string(16) "America/St_Johns"
DateTimeZone::listAbbreviations() shows Asia/Kathmandu with offset
19800.
19800 = 3600 * 5.5 which is UTC+05:30 - that is the time zone for Indian
cities like Kokata.
Nepal Kathmandu is UTC+05:45 so the offset should be 3600 * 5.75 =
20700
Test script:
---------------
$x = timezone_name_from_abbr("NPT");
var_dump($x);
$y = DateTimeZone::listAbbreviations();
var_dump($y);
Expected result:
----------------
$x should have "Asia/Kathmandu"
The output in $y should have for Asia/Kathmandu and Asia/Katmandu
[7]=>
array(3) {
["dst"]=>
bool(false)
["offset"]=>
int(20700)
["timezone_id"]=>
string(14) "Asia/Kathmandu"
}
[8]=>
array(3) {
["dst"]=>
bool(false)
["offset"]=>
int(20700)
["timezone_id"]=>
string(13) "Asia/Katmandu"
}
Actual result:
--------------
string(16) "America/St_Johns"
In the $y output:
[7]=>
array(3) {
["dst"]=>
bool(false)
["offset"]=>
int(19800)
["timezone_id"]=>
string(14) "Asia/Kathmandu"
}
[8]=>
array(3) {
["dst"]=>
bool(false)
["offset"]=>
int(19800)
["timezone_id"]=>
string(13) "Asia/Katmandu"
}
