Bug #75119 [NEW]: function timezone_identifiers_list returns Asia/Rangoon but not Asia/Yangon
From: michele dot carino84 at gmail dot com
Operating system: Any
PHP version: Irrelevant
Package: Date/time related
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:function timezone_identifiers_list returns Asia/Rangoon but not Asia/Yangon
Description:
------------
According to IANA Asia/Rangoon is only a link for Asia/Yangon.
The function timezone_identifiers_list returns only Asia/Rangoon.
The documentation of the function does not specifies that it's going to
return only some of the available ids so the user expectation is to have
at least main ids, instead of secondary linked ones.
A documentation change would make easy to understand what the function
returns.
And also all of the primary ids should be returned.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
if (!in_array('Asia\Yangon', timezone_identifiers_list())) {
echo 'Asia\Yangon not returned';
}
if (!in_array('Asia\Rangoon', timezone_identifiers_list())) {
echo PHP_EOL . 'Asia\Rangoon returned';
}
Expected result:
----------------
# if the intent of the function is to return only IANA primary ids
Asia\Yangon returned
Asia\Rangoon not returned
# else if the intent of the function is to return all of the ids
Asia\Yangon returned
Asia\Rangoon returned
Actual result:
--------------
Asia\Yangon not returned
Asia\Rangoon returned
