Really?  But with DateTime::Event::Recurrence you very easily generate
these types of sets.  For example, for a set of dates one per day:


use DateTime; use DateTime::Event::Recurrence;

 my $start = DateTime->new( year => 2003, month => 10, day => 3 );
 my $end   = DateTime->new( year => 2003, month => 11, day => 10 );

my $daily = DateTime::Event::Recurrence->daily( start => $start, end => $end );

while ( my $dt = $daily->next ) { ... }

How hard is that?

my $i = Date::Iterator->new( from => [2003,10,3], to => [2003,11,10] ) ; while (my $day = $i->next) { ... }

Is this harder?

What does your module offer that makes it worth _not_ getting all the
other features DateTime.pm offers, like useful time zone support, lots
of formatting & parsing options, the ability to do set math on sets
(union, difference, intersection, etc.)?

Maybe the fact that I don't need all the other features?


However, I think the docs for DT::Event::Recurrence need some work,
because I don't the fact that you can do easy stuff with it is obvious.
----------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Is there a "think" missing?

Anyway, I agree with you: from the docs you have the feeling that all the framework is a lot complicated...
