Issue #11673 has been updated by Nobuyoshi Nakada. Description updated Status changed from Open to Assigned Assignee set to tadayoshi funaba ---------------------------------------- Bug #11673: Inconsistent timezone behaviour (Time.parse and DateTime.parse) https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11673#change-54813 * Author: Grzegorz Witek * Status: Assigned * Priority: Normal * Assignee: tadayoshi funaba * ruby -v: 2.3.0dev (2015-05-07 trunk 50439) * Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN, 2.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- The source of this bug is here: https://github.com/rails/rails/issues/22171#issuecomment-155090007 behaviour between `DateTime.parse` and `Time.parse` is inconsistent when it comes to parsing ISO8601 without letter "Z" ~~~ruby irb(main):003:0> time = "2015-11-20T03:05:30" => "2015-11-20T03:05:30" irb(main):005:0> Time.parse(time) => 2015-11-20 03:05:30 +0800 irb(main):007:0> DateTime.parse(time) => #<DateTime: 2015-11-20T03:05:30+00:00 ((2457347j,11130s,0n),+0s,2299161j)> ~~~ Time.parse returns time in local timezone, while `DateTime.parse` returns it in UTC. According to specification, without letter "Z" in the end, the time should be in local timezone (so `Time` class is correct and `DateTime` is wrong) Is this a bug or for some reason this is intended behaviour? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
