148=head1 NAME
149
150Time::Local - efficiently compute time from local and GMT time
151
152=head1 SYNOPSIS
153
396e3838
DL
154 $time = timelocal($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year);
155 $time = timegm($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year);
06ef4121
PC
156
157=head1 DESCRIPTION
158
396e3838 159These routines are the inverse of built-in perl functions localtime()
06ef4121
PC
160and gmtime(). They accept a date as a six-element array, and return
161the corresponding time(2) value in seconds since the Epoch (Midnight,
162January 1, 1970). This value can be positive or negative.
163
164It is worth drawing particular attention to the expected ranges for
eee32007
JH
165the values provided. The value for the day of the month is the actual day
166(ie 1..31), while the month is the number of months since January (0..11).
06ef4121
PC
167This is consistent with the values returned from localtime() and gmtime().
168
e36f48eb 169The timelocal() and timegm() functions perform range checking on the
396e3838 170input $sec, $min, $hour, $mday, and $mon values by default. If you'd
e36f48eb
GS
171rather they didn't, you can explicitly import the timelocal_nocheck()
172and timegm_nocheck() functions.
ac54365a 173
e36f48eb 174 use Time::Local 'timelocal_nocheck';
3cb6de81 175
a1f33342 176 {
a1f33342 177 # The 365th day of 1999
e36f48eb 178 print scalar localtime timelocal_nocheck 0,0,0,365,0,99;
ac54365a 179
a1f33342 180 # The twenty thousandth day since 1970
e36f48eb 181 print scalar localtime timelocal_nocheck 0,0,0,20000,0,70;
ac54365a 182
a1f33342 183 # And even the 10,000,000th second since 1999!
e36f48eb 184 print scalar localtime timelocal_nocheck 10000000,0,0,1,0,99;
a1f33342 185 }
ac54365a 186
e36f48eb 187Your mileage may vary when trying these with minutes and hours,

188and it doesn't work at all for months.
189

PC
190Strictly speaking, the year should also be specified in a form consistent
191with localtime(), i.e. the offset from 1900.
192In order to make the interpretation of the year easier for humans,
193however, who are more accustomed to seeing years as two-digit or four-digit
194values, the following conventions are followed:
195
196=over 4
197
198=item *
199
200Years greater than 999 are interpreted as being the actual year,
201rather than the offset from 1900. Thus, 1963 would indicate the year
90ca0aaa 202Martin Luther King won the Nobel prize, not the year 2863.
06ef4121
PC
203
204=item *
205
206Years in the range 100..999 are interpreted as offset from 1900,
207so that 112 indicates 2012. This rule also applies to years less than zero
208(but see note below regarding date range).
209
210=item *
211
212Years in the range 0..99 are interpreted as shorthand for years in the
213rolling "current century," defined as 50 years on either side of the current
214year. Thus, today, in 1999, 0 would refer to 2000, and 45 to 2045,
215but 55 would refer to 1955. Twenty years from now, 55 would instead refer
216to 2055. This is messy, but matches the way people currently think about
217two digit dates. Whenever possible, use an absolute four digit year instead.
218
219=back
220
221The scheme above allows interpretation of a wide range of dates, particularly
222if 4-digit years are used.
90ca0aaa 223
06ef4121
PC
224Please note, however, that the range of dates that can be actually be handled
225depends on the size of an integer (time_t) on a given platform.
226Currently, this is 32 bits for most systems, yielding an approximate range
227from Dec 1901 to Jan 2038.
228
229Both timelocal() and timegm() croak if given dates outside the supported
230range.
231
232=head1 IMPLEMENTATION
233
234These routines are quite efficient and yet are always guaranteed to agree
235with localtime() and gmtime(). We manage this by caching the start times
236of any months we've seen before. If we know the start time of the month,
237we can always calculate any time within the month. The start times
326557bd
GB
238are calculated using a mathematical formula. Unlike other algorithms
239that do multiple calls to gmtime().
06ef4121
PC
240
241timelocal() is implemented using the same cache. We just assume that we're
242translating a GMT time, and then fudge it when we're done for the timezone
243and daylight savings arguments. Note that the timezone is evaluated for
244each date because countries occasionally change their official timezones.
245Assuming that localtime() corrects for these changes, this routine will
326557bd 246also be correct.
06ef4121
PC
247
248=head1 BUGS
249
250The whole scheme for interpreting two-digit years can be considered a bug.
251
06ef4121
PC
252The proclivity to croak() is probably a bug.
