Hi all,
I have an old perl code running from perl 5 version 12 using DateManip and DateCalc on Solaris which runs as it should. We have recently migrated to linux perl 5 version 16 and the DateCalc function doesn't work at all. I am trying to count days between two dates for example, i have tried to output what are the inputs to the DateCalc function
use Date::Manip;
my $dt1='2016080100:00:00';
my $dt2='2016123100:00:00';
my $dtopt= DateCalc($dt1,$dt2);
print $dtopt;
The above code outputs
0:0:0:0:6576:0:0
where as the old version on Solaris outputs as
+0:0:+21:5:1:0:0
I am expecting the output to be as old version of perl.
I know there is some problem with the format but unable to figure it out. I would really appreciate any help.
I have tried to use ParseDate,Delta_Format but the result is same.
P.S this is not my code i am trying to fix this.
Many Thanks,
Teju

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
