Weekday crontab not working correctly.

[kkirby]

First off, awesome library. Thanks for all the hard work.

I'm having an issue with the @Weekly cron tab (using both the alias and the actual cron tab of 0 0 * * 0). The issue is that it works fine for looking ahead, but not so much on looking behind.

If I do 0 0 * * 0 for now, the next date is at 2012-09-09 00:00:00, however the previous due date is 2012-03-11 00:00:00. I did some looking in the code and found that if I modify the following file:

DayOfWeekField, line 118 to: $date->setTime(0, 0, 0);

It works fine.

I'm not sure if this is actually the fix or not, or if something is weird with my machine. I ran PHPUnit on the tests (without my modification) and it came back with several errors and fails. Here is a paste bin of the test output: http://pastebin.com/s0MGpBid

Thanks!

My apologies. Apparently this is an issue with the version of PHP I am running. You can find more details on the bug here: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51090

I was able to pass the unit tests by adding this code:

$datetime->sub(new DateInterval("P0D"));

Right after any add or sub method call to a date inside of any increment method. So if "sub" was called inside of increment, I added the above code after the "sub" call. Same goes for any "add" call.

Thanks.
