Status changed from Open to Feedback At r31672, date changed it but no description or rationale. > * ext/date/date_strftime(date_strftime_with_tmx): "%v" means "%e-%b-%Y". Does anybody have any pointers? ---------------------------------------- Misc #13810: Inconsistency between Date and Time.strftime("%v") https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/13810#change-66167 * Author: osteele (Oliver Steele) * Status: Feedback * Priority: Normal * Assignee: ---------------------------------------- This seems odd. Each function matches its documentation, but the document and implementation of `Date.strftime("%v")` differs from the documentation and implementations of `Time.strftime("%v")` and `DateTime.strftime("%v")`. ``` ruby --version ruby 2.4.1p111 (2017-03-22 revision 58053) [x86_64-darwin16] ``` ``` require 'time' # https://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.4.1/libdoc/date/rdoc/Date.html#method-i-strftime # %v - VMS date (%e-%b-%Y) d = Date.iso8601 "2006-01-02T15:04:05-05:00" puts d.strftime("%v") # -> 2-Jan-2006 puts d.strftime("%e-%b-%Y") # -> 2-Jan-2006 # https://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.4.1/libdoc/date/rdoc/DateTime.html#method-i-strftime # %v - VMS date (%e-%b-%Y) dt = DateTime.iso8601 "2006-01-02T15:04:05-05:00" puts dt.strftime("%v") # -> 2-Jan-2006 puts dt.strftime("%e-%b-%Y") # -> 2-Jan-2006 # https://ruby-doc.org/core-2.4.1/Time.html#method-i-strftime # %v - VMS date (%e-%^b-%4Y) t = Time.iso8601 "2006-01-02T15:04:05-05:00" puts t.strftime("%v") # 2-JAN-2006 puts t.strftime("%e-%^b-%4Y") # 2-JAN-2006 ``` -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/ Unsubscribe:
