Date and Time Zone Classes

Generic classes for representation and manipulation of dates, times and time zones without the need of timestamps, which is a huge limitation for php programs. Includes time zone data, time zone conversions and many date/time conversions. It does not rely on 32-bit system date stamps, so you can display calendars and compare dates that date pre 1970 and post 2038. This package also provides a class to convert date strings between Gregorian and Human calendar formats. baba Baba Buehler baba@babaz.com lead mohrt Monte Ohrt mohrt@php.net lead pajoye Pierre-Alain Joye pajoye@pearfr.org lead alan_k Alan Knowles alan@akbkhome.com developer 1.4rc1 2003-12-03 PHP License beta - improvements in input date parsing - add Date methods addSpan() and subtractSpan() - added two more ISO8601 date/time output formats DATE_FORMAT_ISO_BASIC and DATE_FORMAT_ISO_EXTENDED - improve Date_Calc isLeapYear() and daysInMonth() for year 1582 - add gregorianToISO() method to Date_Calc - add dateSeason() method to Date_Calc - add Date_Span class - bugfix in Date_Calc when century ends in 00, only define DATE_CALC_BEGIN_WEEKDAY if not already defined - bugfix in beginOfNextWeek(), beginOfPreviousWeek() (thx to andreas dot kossmeier at bergfex dot at) - bugfix in nextDayOfWeek and prevDayOfWeek (thx to koan at gmx dot at) - bugfix for bug 62: getDate(DATE_FORMAT_UNIXTIME) off because of DST - bugfix for bug 65: format(e) returns zero-padded day - bugfix for bug 195: Suppress a notice in setDate() - bugfix for bug 271: Date_Calc weeksInMonth() returns wrong number - add tests to release package
