DateTime php function causing error
#1

(This post was last modified: 05-24-2020, 11:27 AM by kick.)

I am trying to get the difference between two dates and wanted to use the basic date->diff function of the DateTime class in php, however the error I am receiving from CodeIgniter 4.0.3 is that it can't find the DateTime class in my controllers directory. Here is what I am doing:

PHP Code:
$date1 = new DateTime($dobStr);
$date2 $date1->diff(new DateTime(date('m/d/Y',time())));

echo 
$date2->y

Has anyone gotten this error if so what have you done to get around it? Thanks in advance.

I found a way around it by turning it into a helper method.

I would still appreciate it if anyone know how/why declaring a new PHP native class would cause CI4 to look for it within it's calling class directory and if there is other ways of accomplishing the calls to native classes.
