That's what CERT recommends. Their code can be reused as is: int validate_tm(struct tm* time) { /* * The range of valid values of the tm_sec member is [0, 60] * inclusive (to allow for leap seconds). */ if (time->tm_sec < 0 || time->tm_sec > 60) return 0; if (time->tm_min < 0 || time->tm_min >= 60) return 0; if (time->tm_hour < 0 || time->tm_hour >= 24) return 0; if (time->tm_mday <= 0 || time->tm_mday > 31) return 0; if (time->tm_mon < 0 || time->tm_mon >= 12) return 0; /* While other years are legit, they may overflow asctime()'s buffer */ if (time->tm_year < -999 || time->tm_year > 9999) return 0; if (time->tm_wday < 0 || time->tm_wday >= 7) return 0; if (time->tm_yday < 0 || time->tm_yday >= 366) return 0; return 1; } ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6608> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
