----------------------------------------
Bug #6282: strptime and fractions of seconds
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6282#change-25858

Author: lparra (Luis Parravicini)
Status: Rejected
Priority: Normal
Assignee: tadf (tadayoshi funaba)
Category: ext
Target version: 
ruby -v: trunk


=begin
DateTime::strptime refers us to #strftime to check the format to use.
DateTime#strftime says fractions of seconds can be specified with %N, %3N, %6N, %9N and %12N but strptime only recognizes %N.


 >  d = DateTime.strptime("1:2:3.123", '%H:%M:%S.%3N')
 ArgumentError: invalid date

And this works:

 > d = DateTime.strptime("1:2:3.1234567901234567890", '%H:%M:%S.%N') 
 > d.sec_fraction
  => (123456790123456789/1000000000000000000) 

I don't know whether it's a bug or the intended functionality but shouldn't it say somewhere in the documentation about this?
