PHP Bug Type: dBase related
Bug description: Corrupt DBF When Using DATE
Description:
------------
Creating or opening a dBase file with a DATE-field type, will create a
database with lenght = 0 for "date" field type.
Reproduce code:
---------------
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
// database "definition"
$def = array(
array("date", "D"),
array("name", "C", 50),
array("email", "C", 128),
array("ismember", "L")
);
// creation
if (!dbase_create('test.dbf', $def)) {
echo "Error, can't create the database\n";
}
// open in read-write mode
$db = dbase_open('test.dbf', 2);
if ($db) {
for ($i = 0; $i < 5; $i++) {
dbase_add_record($db, array(
date('Ymd'),
'Name #'. $i,
'Email #'. $i,
'T'));
}
dbase_close($db);
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
A simple database with 5 lines, where DATE, Name & Email are entered
correctly.
Actual result:
--------------
The code above will create file called "test.dbf", which is corrupted
when opening it with any normal DBF-viewer (CDBF, DBF Manager, ...). If
the DATE-field is replaced with a CHAR-field, all works fine.
Date-format is taken from the PHP.NET website and confirmed by the
dBase-format.
