#7716: Zonetime read instance failing to parse what show returns ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Reporter: mercer92 | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: libraries (other) Version: 7.4.2 | Keywords: ZoneTime read show Os: Windows | Architecture: x86 Failure: Incorrect result at runtime | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: ----------------------------------------+----------------------------------- Test case: {{{ import Data.Time main = do time <- getZonedTime let string = show time print string print $ (read string :: ZonedTime) }}} This gives me: {{{ *Main> main "2013-02-24 14:51:56.453125 Central European Standard Time" *** Exception: Prelude.read: no parse }}} Reportedly this works with (some) other timezones, so be sure to also test it with mine (show time => "2013-02-24 14:51:56.453125 Central European Standard Time"). -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7716 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
