In article <200711291807.lATI71aj028620@www.freebsd.org> you write: >Dec 31 does not: >% date -v31d -v12m -v7y >31d: Cannot apply date adjustment Wrong argument order. This fails because *November* has only 30 days. $ date -v7y -v12m -v31d Mon Dec 31 13:12:10 EST 2007 -GAWollman State Changed From-To: open->closed Operation is dependent on parameter order. |
/bin/date does not believe that December has 31 days Fix: A quick glance at the code shows that the constant table lists 31 days for December so it's going to take a bit more effort than that. How-To-Repeat: December 30 works: % date -v30d -v12m -v7y Sun Dec 30 13:04:56 EST 2007 Dec 31 does not: % date -v31d -v12m -v7y 31d: Cannot apply date adjustment usage: date [-jnu] [-d dst] [-r seconds] [-t west] [-v[+|-]val[ymwdHMS]] ... [-f fmt date | [[[[[cc]yy]mm]dd]HH]MM[.ss]] [+format]
