Doc #74324 [NEW]: DateTimeZone supported timezone names
From: graeme dot chapman at infinitycloud dot com
Operating system: Ubuntu
PHP version: 5.6.30
Package: Date/time related
Bug Type: Documentation Problem
Bug description:DateTimeZone supported timezone names
Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/datetimezone.construct
---
The documentation states that the DateTimeZone constructor accepts 'One
of the supported timezone
names(http://php.net/manual/en/timezones.php).'
However, it also appears to accept offset values. Unsure if this is
expected but undocumented behaviour, or a bug. In PHP 5.5.9 this throws
an exception.
Test script:
---------------
var_dump(new DateTimeZone('+0200'));
Expected result:
----------------
Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message
'DateTimeZone::__construct(): Unknown or bad timezone (+0200)'
Actual result:
--------------
object(DateTimeZone)#1 (2) {
["timezone_type"]=>
int(1)
["timezone"]=>
string(6) "+02:00"
}
