strtotime returns false for large dates php5.6

Question

In my php5.6 the output of the following code is false

$test =  strtotime("2050-07-31 00:00:00.000000");

when running this code using the online compiler attached below it returns 2542838400

What would cause this code to be returning false for us and how would we go about fixing this?

Answer 1

In addition to many other reasons why strtotime returns false, there can be another one - you have 32-bit computing system.

Which means that values that are greater than 2 147 483 647 (and 2 542 838 400 is) cannot be stored in a variable.

So, you have to check your architecture and move to 64-bit computing system.

Answer 2

define symbol __RAM_func_start__ = 0;  //ITC start
define symbol __RAM_func_end__ = 0x10000;//start + 64k
define region RAM_func_region = mem:[from __RAM_func_start__ to __RAM_func_end__];

define block RamCode {section .textrw};
place in RAM_func_region { block RamCode };
initialize by copy {readwrite};

And mark functions __ramfunc for example

__ramfunc int main(void)
{
    /* ..... */
}
