Lekha,
 
I wrote the sample program below, and ran it on both AIX 4.3.3 & AIX 5.1
in both threaded and unthreaded mode (xlc vs. xlc_r compiler).
In both cases it returned 138.
 
#ifdef _THREAD_SAFE
#include <pthread.h>
#endif
 
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
 
main()
{
    struct tm  wk_localtime;
    struct tm *my_localtime;
 
    time_t  my_time = 2147483647;
 
    #ifdef _THREAD_SAFE
 
    memset(&wk_localtime, '\0', sizeof(wk_localtime));
    my_localtime = localtime_r(&my_time, &wk_localtime);
 
    #else
 
    my_localtime = localtime(&my_time);
    #endif
 
    printf("my_localtime->tm_year=%hd\n", my_localtime->tm_year);
}

Subject: Problem with apr_time_exp_lt (localtime_r) on AIX

Hi,
 
I am facing a strange problem with apr_time_exp_lt.
 
On AIX, when i call apr_time_exp_lt with 2nd arg as 2147483647000000LL, it sets the yr as 1 instead on 138.
 
The same works on Linux properly.
 
I investigated the code & found that apr_time_exp_lt internally calls explode_time().
 
Here, localtime_r is called with arguments (&tt, &tm) where tt=2147483647.
 
localtime_r seems to be having some issue!
 
For checking localtime_r, i wrote a sample program. There also, while passing tt=2147483647, it returned  1 instead of 138.
 
Is this AIX specific?
 
Please help!
 
Thanks in adv!
 
Regards,
Lekha
