#22468 [Opn->Bgs]: Extension does not support dates earlier than Epoch

ID: 22468 Updated by: iliaa@php.net Reported By: stuart at myrddraal dot demon dot co dot uk -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: XMLRPC-EPI related Operating System: Gentoo Linux PHP Version: 4.3.0 New Comment: Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. This is a bug in libxmlrpc and not PHP. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-27 18:54:52] stuart at myrddraal dot demon dot co dot uk The XML-RPC Extension does not correctly cope with dates before the Epoch (ie, anything which won't go into time_t). This bug prevents the XML-RPC Extension passing the XML-RPC verification suite, which can be found at http://validator.xmlrpc.com/ The following example code demonstrates the fault. <?php $l_szDate = "19040401T19:01:02"; xmlrpc_set_type ($l_szDate, "datetime"); echo xmlrpc_encode_request(null, $l_szDate); ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22468&edit=1
