Morning all,
Wander over to
http://perl.dellah.org/modules/
and have a look at DateTime::Format::Builder. It's not finished.
The docs need work, it needs more tests, and it's missing some features.
(And the tests to test the missing features.)
I'm about to sleep and won't get a chance to play with it for quite a
few hours, so patches, advice, etc. are welcome.
I admit I think I got a bit carried away. =)
One thing I just realised I didn't explain in the docs is the purpose of
permitting specrefs to be code. That's so you can chain things if you so
desire. Want it to first check via lengths, and then via 'normal' specs?
Just a simple matter of composing a parser fn that calls two other
parser fns. A nice touch, when implemented, that adds quite a bit of
power.
I do need to clean up the exceptions I throw. I throw too many. Or, feel
free to send a patch (to me, or to the list; the rt.cpan.org address
won't work until I upload to CPAN).
cheers,
--
Iain.
