Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=79858&edit=1 ID: 79858 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: m dot smeets at performation dot com Summary: IntlDateTimeFormatter spec does not match PHP -Status: Open +Status: Not a bug Type: Documentation Problem -Package: Date/time related +Package: intl Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 7.3.20 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: cmb Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Indeed, the ext/date format specifiers do not apply to IntlDateFormatter, as already documented. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-07-20 01:40:26] a at b dot c dot de The documentation for the IntlDateFormatter constructor does say: " pattern Optional pattern to use when formatting or parsing. Possible patterns are documented at » http://userguide.icu-project.org/formatparse/datetime. " ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-07-14 13:46:58] m dot smeets at performation dot com Description: ------------ --- From manual page: https://php.net/class.intldateformatter --- According to https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php 'Y' is "A full numeric representation of a year, 4 digits" and 'o' is "ISO-8601 week-numbering year. This has the same value as Y, except that if the ISO week number (W) belongs to the previous or next year, that year is used instead. (added in PHP 5.1.0)" But in IntlDateFormatter "Y" is "Week of Year", shown in http://userguide.icu-project.org/formatparse/datetime. This means that the following format will be interpreted differently Test script: --------------- date = 2018-12-31 format = d-m-Y PHP date_format "31-12-2019" IntlDate format "31-12-2020" Expected result: ---------------- Expected result is the same, but I expect a warning on the PHP IntlDateFormatter page: https://www.php.net/manual/en/class.intldateformatter.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=79858&edit=1
