When I retrieve a datetime field from a mysql database, it gets a "T" stuck in between the date and time fields of the return value (for "Time", I assume). Is there a way to suppress this and have a space in the field as I'm expecting? I don't see anything in the RDBO documentation about it. Looking in the DateTime documentation it seems that's standard for the DateTime::datetime function. I don't see anyway of overriding it from the Rose objects though, and I've learned to ask questions on mailing lists before I start poring through CPAN code. :)
Example: mysql>SELECT user_name, expires from user; +---------------------------+---------------------+ | user_name | expires | +---------------------------+---------------------+ | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 2006-12-21 13:59:59 | +---------------------------+---------------------+ using this code snippet: my $user = My::User->new(user_name => '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'); ##My::User has 'use base qw(Rose::DB::Object);' $user->load; print $user->expires; I get: 2006-12-21T13:59:59 Obviously, I could just s/T/ /g on any field that's a datetime in my database, but I'd like a cleaner way that will make all datetime fields return as they are in the mysql client. Any ideas? I've just started with RDBO so I apologize if I've missed something obvious or something covered in the docs.
