note 122011 added to class.mongodate

MichaelBrenden -- How do the two Mongo drivers determine if they can translate something into the ISODate format? Does mongo.so require a class type of MongoDate, or does it determine by data returned by __toString() (i.e., "0.12345678 1234567890")? Does mongodb.so require a class type of \MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime, or does it determine by data returned by __toString() (i.e., "1234567890123")? jmikola >> the ISODate format? For the record, ISODate is just a helper function in the mongo shell. The actual BSON type is 0x09 in the BSON spec and is best referred to as "UTC date time".

The driver requires a MongoDB\BSON\UTCDateTime object in order to encode a BSON date type. The relevant instanceof check during BSON encoding is here if you care to see it. The __toString() function exists purely as a convenience for userland applications. The driver does not use it outside of tests. [url]https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-php-driver/blob/1.3.4/src/bson-encode.c#L215[/url] The legacy mongo.so driver is similar in that it requires a MongoDate object in order to encode a BSON date type (relevant code is here).
