             Bug #: 15100
           Summary: strptime conversion error for %W
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.15
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

%W returns incorrect answers

The code here:

#define _XOPEN_SOURCE
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <time.h>
  int
main (void)
{
  struct tm tm;
  char buf[255];

  memset (&tm, 0, sizeof (struct tm));
  // ok what week number is the 1st of January 2012?
  // according to this it is week 01 in %U format 
  // and 00 in %W format...
  strptime ("2012-01-01 01:00", "%Y-%m-$d %H:%M", &tm);
  strftime (buf, sizeof (buf), "%Y-%m-%d %U %W %a %b %H:%M", &tm);
  puts("To demonstrate the different week numbers in %U %W");
  puts("Using format %Y-%m-%d %U %W %a %b %H:%M");
  puts (buf);
  // to demonstrate it works
  strptime ("2012 02 Sun 01 00", "%Y %W %a %H %M", &tm);
  strftime (buf, sizeof (buf), "%Y-%m-%d %a %b %H %M", &tm);
  puts("\nUsing format %Y-%m-%d %a %b %H%M for 2012 02 Sun 01 00");
  puts (buf);
  // but then the potential bug...
  strptime ("2012 01 Sun 01 00", "%Y %W %a %H %M", &tm);
  strftime (buf, sizeof (buf), "%Y-%m-%d %a %b %H %M", &tm);
  puts("\nUsing format %Y-%m-%d %a %b %H%M for 2012 01 Sun 01 00");
  puts("and this is wrong...");
  puts (buf);
  strptime ("2012 00 Sun 01 00", "%Y %W %a %H %M", &tm);
  strftime (buf, sizeof (buf), "%Y-%m-%d %a %b %H %M", &tm);
  puts("\nUsing format %Y-%m-%d %a %b %H %M for 2012 00 Sun 01 00");
  puts("and this is VERY wrong...");
  puts (buf);
  exit (EXIT_SUCCESS);
}


generates the following:

To demonstrate the different week numbers in %U %W
Using format %Y-%m-%d %U %W %a %b %H:%M
2012-01-00 01 00 Sun Jan 00:00

Using format %Y-%m-%d %a %b %H%M for 2012 02 Sun 01 00
2012-01-08 Sun Jan 01 00

Using format %Y-%m-%d %a %b %H%M for 2012 01 Sun 01 00
and this is wrong...
2012-01-01 Sun Jan 01 00

Using format %Y-%m-%d %a %b %H %M for 2012 00 Sun 01 00
and this is VERY wrong...
