Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-07-17 14:34:47] tj at systisoft dot com Description: ------------ If you set a time zone for a DateTime via DateTime::setTimeZone() and that time zone has no ID you get an error message and the time zone will not be set. This can lead to problems if you have two DateTime objects from a source you do not control and want to format the second DateTime object in the same time zone as the first. Reproduce code: --------------- $d1 = new DateTime('2008-01-01 12:00:00 +02:00'); $d2 = new DateTime('2008-01-01 12:00:00 UTC'); echo $d1->format(DATE_ISO8601), PHP_EOL; echo $d2->format(DATE_ISO8601), PHP_EOL; $d2->setTimeZone($d1->getTimeZone()); echo $d1->format(DATE_ISO8601), PHP_EOL; echo $d2->format(DATE_ISO8601), PHP_EOL; Expected result: ---------------- 2008-01-01T12:00:00+0200 2008-01-01T12:00:00+0000 2008-01-01T12:00:00+0200 2008-01-01T14:00:00+0200 Actual result: -------------- 2008-01-01T12:00:00+0200 2008-01-01T12:00:00+0000 PHP Warning: DateTime::setTimezone(): Can only do this for zones with ID for now in /Users/tobias/test.php on line 5 Warning: DateTime::setTimezone(): Can only do this for zones with ID for now in /Users/tobias/test.php on line 5 2008-01-01T12:00:00+0200 2008-01-01T12:00:00+0000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-07-17 13:07:47] tj at systisoft dot com Description: ------------ if you set a time zone for a DateTime via DateTime::setTimeZone() and that time zone has no ID you get an error message and the time zone will not be set.
