Bug #73269 [NEW]: DateTime::create from format doesn't have trailing 0.
From: contactme at antonydandrea dot com
Operating system: Ubuntu 16.04.2
PHP version: 7.0.11
Package: Date/time related
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:DateTime::create from format doesn't have trailing 0.
Description:
------------
In the documentation, 'd' for dates is supposed to be a 2 digit
character. So if it is less than 10, there is a 0 in front, e.g. 09.
DateTime::createfromformat is supposed to "Parses a time string
according to a specified format" return false on failure. I would expect
'd' to reject strings that did not have two characters for strings.
Yet it seems to accept it as valid like 'j'. It looks like PHP tries to
be clever and automatically treat is as 'j', but I think this behaviour
is inconsistent.
Test script:
---------------
$dateObj = date_create_from_format('Y-m-d', '1930-12-3');
var_dump($dateObj->format('Y-m-d');
Expected result:
----------------
I expect that for the sake of consistency, PHP returns false and fails
to create an object based on the format.
Actual result:
--------------
It returns the object and the var_dump has the string "1930-12-03".
