note 85746 added to function.mktime

[quote thomas_corthals at hotmail dot com] It seems mktime() doesn't return negative timestamps on Linux systems with a version of glibc <= 2.3.3. [/quote] Negative timestamps are not supported in any known Windows environment. Therefore only valuations for year in range of [1970..2038] are allowed. Thus you cannot rely that php knows how to handle negative timestamps. If you have valuations with year out of [1970..2038] you may got to think of a alternative implementation using date() and parse variables for yourself OR (which would be much faster) a self-designed class that safely calculates dates out of range. ---- Server IP: 192.35.244.50 Probable Submitter: 81.223.54.114 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mktime.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/85746 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85746/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85746/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85746/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85746/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85746/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85746/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/85746 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/85746 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
