@@ -26,3 +26,12 @@ Ok, `%z` and `%Z` don't work correctly because `struct tm` is often extended. When I convert to and from a dictionary, I lose that information. Ok I've confirmed that MacOS has bugs in the libc and have now reported them. + +I've pulled in eggert tz. This helps a lot, but some details are still unfortunate (due to the spec). +The spec specifies quite explicitly that mktime operates on localtime output, which means I'll most +likely have to wrap all time_t manipulations in a localtime. +Let's start with the native api, and then the janet wrapper will purely speak time_t, I think? +I technically also have automatic "free" access to non-ISOC99 things, since they're simply +there to be used. However, I'd need to find a way to expose some libtz internals (as they can +redefine time_t, define timezone_t, etc) to get that working. +As such, I don't think I'll be doing that. |
