README

This component provides the Time API added to PHP 8.6 core, for PHP >= 8.1:

  • Time\TimeException, Time\Duration

The phpt tests of the native implementation, borrowed from php-src, run against the polyfill as part of the test suite. One divergence remains: Duration is a plain final class with readonly properties instead of a readonly class, so ReflectionClass::newInstanceWithoutConstructor() succeeds where the native class rejects it. Dynamic properties are rejected as they are natively.

More information can be found in the main Polyfill README.
