Well, this sure took long enough. I kind of turned some bits of the
internals into messy crap in the process of fixing the leap second bugs,
but at this point I feel pretty confident in the _tests_ at least. So
in the future I do hope to un-crap the internals again. Alternately, I
wonder if it'd be easier to try to use something like libtai, but that's
probably a longer term thing.
Anyway, enjoy ...
0.23 2004-12-09 (the "oh how I hate leap seconds" release)
[ ENHANCEMENTS ]
- Added a number of convenience "set" methods: set_year, set_month,
set_day, set_hour, set_minute, set_second, set_nanosecond, and
set_locale. Suggested by Michael Schwern.
- Added christian_era and year_with_christian_era methods.
- Clarified that from_epoch(), today(), and now() all return objects
in the UTC time zone. Suggested by Sagar Shah and others.
- Added formatter parameter to constructor, which allows per-object
stringification. Based on a patch from Daisuke Maki.
[ BUG FIXES ]
- Trying to serialize DateTime::Infinite objects with Storable blew
up. Patch by Daisuke Maki.
- Require Test::More 0.34+, since I use a function introduced in that
version in the tests. Suggested by Jean Forget.
- Fix a bug in strftime() which could cause weirdness with
pathological specifiers like "%%{day_name}%n". Reported by Jean
Forget.
- Fixed a number of bugs related to leap seconds and time zones.
Reported by Eugene van der Pijll.
