Bug #78879 for Time-Piece: strptime with single arg

Fri Aug 10 01:52:41 2012 STEVENL [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

Subject:

strptime with single arg

strptime() is supposed to be the opposite of strftime(). Though not documented in the POD, strptime() sometimes works without a format argument when the time is in the default strftime format. These work: Time::Piece->strptime('Fri, 10 Aug 2012 05:37:42 GMT'); Time::Piece->strptime('Fri, 10 Aug 2012 05:37:42'); But these throw an "Error parsing time" exception: Time::Piece->strptime( localtime->strftime ); Time::Piece->strptime('Fri, 10 Aug 2012 05:37:42 AEST');

Seems like strptime() only support 'GMT'. I saw got_GMT as an arg in _strptime function. But what can we do if we need a timezone set? 在2012-八月-10 01:52:41 星期五时，STEVENL写到： Show quoted text
