AsDateTime fails with superfluous text in chracter vector

[huzunali]

Hi,

I am getting the following behavior with AsDateTime:

flipTime::AsDateTime("Thu, 1st of July 2004 at 22:30:00")
[1] "2004-09-01 22:30:00 UTC"
flipTime::AsDateTime("Thu, 1 of July 2004 at 22:30:00")
[1] "2004-10-01 22:30:00 UTC"
flipTime::AsDateTime("Thu, 1st July 2004 at 22:30:00")
[1] "2004-09-01 22:30:00 UTC"

However,

flipTime::AsDateTime("Thu, 1 July 2004 at 22:30:00")
[1] "2004-07-01 22:30:00 UTC"

Is this expected behavior?

Many thanks,

H

Hi,
A related issue, with fliTime 2.10.0 (installed just now):

> AsDate("Thu, 21 Oct 2021")
Erreur dans handleParseFailure(deparse(substitute(x)), length(na.ind), on.parse.failure) : 
  Could not parse "Thu, 21 Oct 2021" into a valid date in any format.
> AsDate("21 Oct 2021")
[1] "2021-10-21"

Maybe because of French Locale?
