on a windows xp pro box...
test controller: require "Date"
class DateController < ApplicationController def index d = DateTime.parse("2006-01-01") end end
results in the error ArgumentError in DateController#index invalid date
in irb however it is fine: irb(main):001:0> require "Date" => true irb(main):002:0> DateTime.parse("2006-01-01") => #<DateTime: 4907473/2,0,2299161>
what's going on?
