note 125041 added to class.dateinterval

Note that you CAN NOT get the exact time in seconds from a \DateInterval object. The reason is simple. While adding the properties up, you can not determine the days of the month. <?php function getTTL(\DateInterval $ttl): int { $secs = (isset($ttl->f) ? ($ttl->f): 0) + ($ttl->s) + ($ttl->i * 60) + ($ttl->h * 60 * 60) + ($ttl->d * 60 * 60 * 24) + ($ttl->m * 60 * 60 * 24 * 30) //Feb. is 28 days, 29 in an intercalary year + ($ttl->y * 60 * 60 * 24 * 365); return intval(round($secs)); } ?> So, keep in mind that \DateInterval is something to add-on to time. <?php function getTTL(\DateInterval $ttl): int { // Find seconds from it's current state of time $secs = \DateTime::createFromFormat('U', '0')->add($ttl)->format('U'); return intval(abs($secs)); } ?> ---- Server IP: 45.112.84.4 Probable Submitter: 103.51.166.36 (proxied: 122.219.245.20) ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/class.dateinterval.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/125041 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125041/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125041/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125041/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125041/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125041/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125041/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/125041 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/125041 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
