Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/mongodate.todatetime
---

The method says it returns a string, but it returns a DateTime object.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$d = new MongoDate(strtotime("2014-11-18 11:01:25"));
var_dump( $d->toDateTime() );
?>

Expected result:
----------------
I expect to see a DateTime object output.

Actual result:
--------------
I get a DateTime object output. The docs say it is a string though.

It actually looks like this doc bug has been fixed when I go to edit the PHP doc. It must just not have been deployed to php.net yet.

Not necessarily. Patches that are submitted to the online editor
still need to be reviewed by the doc team, and that may take some
time. Therefore I'm marking this ticket as "suspended".

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
