Subject: | Date::Parse::str2time maps date in 1963 to 2063 |
The Date::Parse::str2time function, given a string representing a date in
1963 such as "1963-12-31 23:59:59 UTC", returns a value denoting a date
exactly 100 years later. Similar strings representing dates in 1964 or
later are handled correctly. (I wonder if the relevant year is 50 years
before the current year; that's just a guess.)
The attached test script demonstrates the bug, and includes the output I
got after the __END__ marker; the output shows the version of Perl, of
the Date::Parse module, and of my system (64-bit Linux).
The strptime() function works correctly for the same input strings.
