[Fwd: Re: [fw-i18n] PHP DateObject]

I would like to suggest an addition to our customized configuration of
PHP available within the virtual accounts.

CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -DEXPERIMENTAL_DATE_SUPPORT" ./configure .... etc.

This allows the community to experiment with the new PHP Date object.

Cheers,
Gavin

Hi Thomas,

There is a compile-time switch required to enable the new ext/date code
for PHP's new Date object.  By default, the switch is not enabled.  I've
added this bit of info to our wiki:
http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFDEV/PHP+Date+Object

The example:
|<?php
$date = new DateTime("2006-12-12");
$date->modify("+1 day");
echo $date->format("Y-m-d");
?>

works in the current snapshot of PHP 5.2, when compiled natively under
Cygwin on my laptop using these options for configure:
|

$ cat ~/bin/config.nice
#! /bin/sh
#
# Created by configure

CFLAGS='-Os -DEXPERIMENTAL_DATE_SUPPORT -march=pentium-m -pipe
-fomit-frame-pointer' \
'./configure' \
'--enable-fastcgi' \
'--enable-sqlite-utf8' \
'--with-pdo-sqlite=/usr/local/lib/' \
'--enable-soap' \
'--enable-sockets' \
'--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib/' \
'--with-png-dir=/usr/lib/' \
'--with-zlib-dir=/usr/lib/' \
'--with-gd' \
"$@"

I expect it works in older versions of PHP with similar
compile/configure options.

Cheers,
Gavin

Ok adding that to the DUALRUN file, will this work with 5.1.6?
