Bug #71765 for DateTime-Event-Recurrence: Second Tuesday of the month

Tue Oct 18 14:33:05 2011 jdavidb2006 [...] gmail.com - Ticket created

Subject:	Second Tuesday of the month
Date:	Tue, 18 Oct 2011 13:32:53 -0500
To:	bug-DateTime-Event-Recurrence [...] rt.cpan.org
From:	David Blackstone <jdavidb2006 [...] gmail.com>

The example below is in the POD: # second tuesday of every month my $set = DateTime::Event::Recurrence->monthly( weeks => 2, days => 2 ); I consider this to be broken because it does not work as described. The behavior that is received is not "second Tuesday of the month" but "Tuesday of the second week of the month." There is a distinction between these two scenarios and people do not use the first to describe the second. The second Tuesday of the month is not dependent on when the week starts, as is the Tuesday of the second week. This has been reported as bug 54166. I apologize for opening a new bug, but I do not know how to comment on the existing bug. The workaround in 54166 still does not handle the case of generating second Tuesday of the month. It only lets you change when the calculation of weeks starts. Second Tuesday of the month is independent of what week number it occurs in. Documentation for the 1su 1mo 1tu ... options is unclear.

Documentation fixed in 0.19 after a discussion in the datetime@perl.org mailing list: 0.19 2017-03-07 - Documentation: -- "week_start_day" parameter no longer marked "for internal use". -- Fix "week day" examples. Pointed out by Eric Jensen and Zefram in a thread started by Andrew Martin in datetime@perl.org -- Clarify that week_start_day defaults to "1mo", except for yearly recurrences that default to "mo". Patches by David Steinbrunner. -- Updated contact email. Sorry, I've only seen this ticket now, after the bug was fixed. Em Ter Out 18 14:33:05 2011, jdavidb2006@gmail.com escreveu: Show quoted text
