#48045 [NEW]: DateTimeZone::getOffset() description problem

From: gebi_hu at yahoo dot com Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem Bug description: DateTimeZone::getOffset() description problem Description: ------------ The description says the offset to GMT is calculated using the timezone set in the DateTime object used. Actually it is calculated using the timezone of the DateTimeZone object itself. This is correctly explained in the example's comment. Also the Example #1 says it is an example of the procedural style call: ---> Example #1 timezone_offset_get() examples but it is actually an example of the class style call: ---> $timeOffset = $dateTimeZoneJapan->getOffset($dateTimeTaipei); Reproduce code: --------------- --- From manual page: datetimezone.getoffset --- Expected result: ---------------- "... The GMT offset is calculated with the timezone information contained in the DateTimeZone object being used." Actual result: -------------- "... The GMT offset is calculated with the timezone information contained in the DateTime object being used." -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48045&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=fixedcvs Fixed in CVS and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48045&r=mysqlcfg
