[PHP-BUG] Bug #51737 [NEW]: Having a bug when using date_diff($t1,$t2)
From:
Operating system: Win XP
PHP version: 5.3.2
Package: *General Issues
Bug Type: Bug
Bug description:Having a bug when using date_diff($t1,$t2)
Description:
Hi,
Sorry if not posting this bug in the correct section. I'm currently having
a bug when using date_diff().
Seems that when the "day" part of the dates is the same on both dates
compared, the function returns "0 Days" instead of 30 or some Days.
Test script:
---
$datetime1 = date_create('2010-03-08');
$datetime2 = date_create('2010-04-08');
$interval = date_diff($datetime1,$datetime2);
echo $interval;
//=> returns "+0 Days"
//
//Whereas
//
$datetime1 = date_create('2010-03-08');
$datetime2 = date_create('2010-04-07');
$interval = date_diff($datetime1,$datetime2);
echo $interval;
//Will return "+30 Days"
Expected result:
Should return "a whole month" interval like +31 Days in that particular
case.
Actual result:
--
returns +0 Days

Huh, sorry about that, and thanks for answering so quickly.
echo $interval->format('%R%d days');
simply from the example on php manual.
Just tried to feed the dates in different formats like 12.04.2010 and
12.03.2010, (instead of 2010-04-12) it seems to give the same result in
final.

The test script you've provided doesn't work, since echoing a
DateInterval object isn't supported. How are you actually outputting
$interval?
