Subject: Bug using Mar 31, 2009 date

To: <bug-time-local [...] rt.cpan.org>
From: stan nats <stan767 [...] hotmail.com>
I'm using Perl version 5.8.7 and Local.pm version 1.11 and version 1.1901 and both tell me that using March 31, 2009 is an invalid day-of-month: Perl Program: #!... use Time::Local; $time1 = timelocal(0,0,0,31,3,2009); print $time1; Output: Day '31' out of range 1..30 at prog.pl line 4 I noticed that in line 118 of Local.pm my $md = $MonthDays[$month]; should be: my $md = $MonthDays[$month-1]; since the offset to the array starts at 0 and not 1; Stan.

If I had a nickel for every time this "bug" was reported. The docs explicitly say that the months start at 0 (0..11). It's dumb, but this is the inverse of localtime, and that's how localtime does it. Please don't respond to this bug, as doing so will re-open it.
