Description: The description for strftime says that “Local timezone information is used as though strftime() called tzset().” It does not specify whether the side effects that are normally associated with tzset (updates to the tzname, daylight, timezone variables) are observable by a caller to strftime or strftime_l. Desired Action: Change the sentence to:
“Local timezone information is used as though strftime() called tzset(). It is unspecified whether the tzname, [XSI] [Option Start] daylight, or timezone [Option End] variables are updated by a call to strftime().” ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 2017-03-07 11:24 Florian Weimer New Issue 2017-03-07 11:24 Florian Weimer Name => Florian Weimer 2017-03-07 11:24 Florian Weimer Organization => Red Hat 2017-03-07 11:24 Florian Weimer User Reference => https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21229 2017-03-07 11:24 Florian Weimer Section => strftime, strftime_l 2017-03-07 11:24 Florian Weimer Page Number => unknown 2017-03-07 11:24 Florian Weimer Line Number => unknown ======================================================================
