+=> 4 digit year conversion. The maximum is billions of years in the future, but this is a theoretical limit as the computation of that year would take too long with the current implementation of adodb_mktime(). Since version 5.20.13, the future date cutoff is limited to 200 years by default. This value is controlled by a constant which may be modified for user requirement.
