The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 2599 Logged by: Josh Tolley Email address: eggyknap (AT) gmail (DOT) com PostgreSQL version: 8.1.4 Operating system: Fedora Core 5 Description: AM/PM doesn't work in to_timestamp in the middle of a string Details: eggyknap=# select to_timestamp('30 Aug 06:01:03.223 PM 2006', 'DD Mon HH:MI:SS.MS AM YYYY'), to_timestamp('30 Aug 2006 06:01:03.223 PM', 'DD Mon YYYY HH:MI:SS.MS AM'); to_timestamp | to_timestamp ---------------------------+---------------------------- 0001-08-30 18:01:03-08 BC | 2006-08-30 18:01:03.223-06 This appears to happen when AM/PM isn't the last element in the string. |

Nice report. The attached patch fixes it, and will be in 8.2. I am not backpatching because someone might be relying on this behavior. |

I am not backpatching because someone might be relying on this behavior. The bug appears to have been introduced just before the 8.1 betas; since it causes the AM/PM indicator simply to never work except at the end of the string, I see no possible justification for not backpatching the fix. -- Andrew, Supernews http://www.supernews.com - individual and corporate NNTP services ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq |
