year_month_day_last::day

Discussion:
The current specification of the year_month_day_last::day
function does not cover the behaviour in the situation when year_month_day_last
value is not ok()
. To illustrate the sentence from
29.8.15.2 [time.cal.ymdlast.members] p13:
A
day
representing the last day of the (year
,month
) pair represented by*this
.
is unclear in the situation when month
member has
!ok
value, e.g. what is last day of 14th month of 2019.
ymdl.day()
(and by
consequence conversion to sys_days
/local_days
)
unspecified if ymdl.ok()
is false
. This make is
consistent with rest of the library, that produces unspecified values in
similiar situation, e.g.: 29.8.14.2 [time.cal.ymd.members] p18,
29.8.16.2 [time.cal.ymwd.members] p19,
29.8.17.2 [time.cal.ymwdlast.members] p14.

Status to Tentatively Ready after five positive votes on the reflector.
Proposed resolution:
This wording is relative to N4820.
Modify 29.8.15.2 [time.cal.ymdlast.members] as indicated:
constexpr chrono::day day() const noexcept;-13- Returns: If
-14- [Note: This value may be computed on demand. — end note]ok()
istrue
, returns aAday
representing the last day of the (year, month
) pair represented by*this
. Otherwise the returned value is unspecified.
