Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:DateTime::createFromFormat, $format=='D' or $format=='l' Always
Returns Today.
Description:
------------
If the format only includes a day string ('D' or 'l'), it is ignored, and a
DateTime instance for the current date/time is returned. Maybe I'm a stupid
idiot,
but I would expect either an error, or for it to return a DateTime object
for the
next occurrence of the given day (similar to
\DateTime::__construct('Monday');)
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$date = new \DateTime('tomorrow');
$date2 = \DateTime::createFromFormat('D', $date->format('D'));
var_dump($date);
var_dump($date->format('D'));
var_dump($date2);
var_dump($date2->format('D'));
Expected result:
----------------
I expect the same date/day to be selected in both cases.
Actual result:
--------------
object(DateTime)#1 (3) {
["date"]=>
string(19) "2011-05-19 00:00:00"
["timezone_type"]=>
int(3)
["timezone"]=>
string(16) "America/New_York"
}
string(3) "Thu"
object(DateTime)#2 (3) {
["date"]=>
string(19) "2011-05-18 18:49:33"
["timezone_type"]=>
int(3)
["timezone"]=>
string(16) "America/New_York"
}
string(3) "Wed"
