Some valid time stamps were being rejected (notably -1, and time stamps before 1900 on 64-bit hosts). And some invalid time stamps were being accepted, e.g. September 31. * lib/posixtm.h (posixtime): Return bool instead of time_t, so that we can return (time_t) -1 successfully. * lib/posixtm.c: Likewise. [HAVE_STDBOOL_H]: Include <stdbool.h>. (bool, false, true) [!HAVE_STDBOOL_H]: New type. (t): Remove static var. (year, posix_time_parse): Now takes struct tm * arg to modify, instead of static var. All uses changed. (year): Do not reject years before 1900; they can occur with 64-bit time_t. (posix_time_parse): Do not check for out-of-range components; that is now the caller's responsibility, since our checks were only approximations. (posixtime): Use mktime to check for out-of-range components, since it knows them exactly. If mktime returns (time_t) -1, check whether an error actually occurred by invoking localtime on -1. (main) [TEST_POSIXTIME]: Check for input data errors, and report posixtime failures better. Improve the test data (in comments only).
The files in this directory are shared between the fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages. Not all files are used by each package. The autoconf tests required for these files are in ../m4. The library name, fetish, is a permutation of the first two letters of each of the package names: FIleutils, TExtutils, SH-utils.
