Dave, if you're following this, can you tell me if there's a reason why you
do this mixed up order?
I think it was just easiest ;)
P.S. Dave, Here's quick hacks of the two functions I'd like to see added ...
there's no checking that we really have a duration or anything like that...
sub add_lsb {
my ($self, $duration) = @_;
foreach (qw/nanosecond second minute hour day month year/) {
$self->add( $_ => $duration->$_ ) if $duration->$_
}
return $self;
}
sub add_msb {
my ($self, $duration) = @_;
foreach (reverse qw/nanosecond second minute hour day month year/) {
$self->add( $_ => $duration->$_ ) if $duration->$_
}
return $self;
}
I really don't want to clutter up the DateTime API any more than it
already is. I think we need some sort of mixin or wrapper namespace like
we've talked about before.
