Req->Doc #47091 [Opn]: ftp_mdtm adjusts for local timezone

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47091&edit=1 ID: 47091 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: qwertywin at gmail dot com -Summary: ftp_mdtm incorrectly adjusts for timezone +Summary: ftp_mdtm adjusts for local timezone Status: Open -Type: Feature/Change Request +Type: Documentation Problem Package: FTP related Operating System: Redhat ES5 PHP Version: 5.2.8 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: cmb Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: > […] as ftp's are non-standard in there handling of whether the > timestamp is GMT/Local While that still may be true in practice, RFC 3659, section 3.4[1] is explicit: | The times are in GMT, […] Anyhow, given ftp_mdtm() always worked this way, and that fmtime() also returns local timestamps, I don't see that this will ever change, so changing to documentation issue. If you still feel strongly about this, please pursue the RFC process[2]. [1] <https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3659#section-3.4> [2] <https://wiki.php.net/rfc/howto> Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-01-13 18:30:28] qwertywin at gmail dot com Description: ------------ ftp_mdtm receives the file modified time via the MDTM ftp command it then proceeds to adjust this timestamp to the current systems timezone, which is a very bad assumption to make as ftp's are non- standard in there handling of whether the timestamp is GMT/Local Thus the modification is compounding the problem. Reproduce code: --------------- refer to \ext\ftp\ftp.c ftp_mdtm Expected result: ---------------- the timestamp recieved from the ftp server. Actual result: -------------- the timestamp adjusted. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=47091&edit=1
