The 5.10.0 POSIX module doesn't look like it supplies strptime:

% perl -v

This is perl, v5.10.0 built for x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi
[...]

% perl -MPOSIX=strptime
"strptime" is not exported by the POSIX module
Can't continue after import errors at /usr/lib/perl/5.10/POSIX.pm line
+ 28
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

% perl -MPOSIX -le 'print POSIX->VERSION'
1.13

You're right. POSIX has never included `strptime`. It includes `strftime`. I apologise for being confused by the original question :-) -- See the Copyright notice on my home node. Perl training courses	[reply]
