Re: Class::DBI::Plugin::DateTime requires DBD::Pg?
Boy, I don't even remember when/why/what that module is... It must be one of my first ever CPAN modules. I'm going to have to dig for the source, so please give me some time. thanks for the heads up --d Rick Measham wrote: G'day Daisuke (or anyone else helping maintain the module ..), We've just installed your Class::DBI::Plugin::DateTime module.

New API for DateTime formats.
I've creating a new API for DateTime formats using a system of Moose::Role -s. These greatly eliminate code redundancy and help consistency. Some of the advantages: * We can now support Time from formats in a consistent fashion * We can now overload any piece of the environment Locale/Timezone in a specific call to parse_datetime * We can now ensure builders of Formats provide the same api (debug/defaults/locale/timezone/pattern) etc. * We can now ensure consistency in the debugging information across all Formats * Using MooseX::Types::DateTime we can now coerce to Timezones/Locales from strings in an intelligent fashion consistently * We can remove the duplication of Olsen abbreviations -> ambiguous exception handlers by putting all of the code in one place. * We can provide the mechanisms necessary to adapt ::Format::* to Time-specific (dateless DateTime modules) by providing intelligent defaults, and wrapping the call to DateTime->new with a helper * We can disable the defaults (setting times to 0, dates to 1) * We provide the ability to cache Locale/Timezone creation across the board. Really it boils down to having two subs required, parse_datetime {}, and format_datetime {}, and nothing else. There are a few more major points I'm probably still missing. TODO: make work for 5.8, make a DateTimeX::Format::Migration to further help those that wish to use DateTimeX::Format without any code-additions (just deletions) All input is appreciated -- Evan Carroll System Lord of the Internets
Re: DateTime::Format::ICal bug : DTSTART value in recurrences not converted to DateTime
This is an intentional feature - DTSTART is not an RRULE component. An iCalendar text looks like: DTSTART:19870405T02 RRULE:FREQ=YEARLY;BYDAY=1SU;BYMONTH=4 reference: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2445.txt Flávio S.

DT::Locale signature breakage
There is a bug in Module::Signature which is causing false signature verification failures for DateTime::Locale. The bug is that it attempts to canonicalise line endings of text files for checksumming, but it does so in a way that doesn't work on perl 5.6. The practical upshot is that if you have \r\n line endings then a signature generated with perl 5.8+ will fail to verify on perl 5.6. All the XML files in tools/t/test-data have \r\n line endings, and so suffer this problem. There's an easy workaround: don't use \r\n. If all the files are changed to use \n, like the rest of the distribution, then checksums will be computed consistently. Of course, the principle of signing something other than what's actually distributed is a stupid idea that opens up security holes. I have mentioned this to the M::S author, along with the inconsistent-canonicalisation bug. -zefram
DateTime::Format::ICal bug : DTSTART value in recurrences not converted to DateTime
Hi, I have a problem with this expression (Second wednesday of every month, at 20:00) that I'm using with DateTime::Format::ICal->parse_recurrence() : FREQ=MONTHLY;BYDAY=2WE;DTSTART=20090201T20Z;COUNT=12 Here is the test case: perl -MDateTime::Format::ICal -e "DateTime::Format::ICal->parse_recurrence(recurrence=>'FREQ=MONTHLY;BYDAY=2WE;DTSTART=20090201T20Z;COUNT=12')" The 'start' parameter ("20090201t20z") to DateTime::Span::from_datetimes was a 'scalar', which is not one of the allowed types: object at C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib/DateTime/Span.pm line 37 DateTime::Span::from_datetimes(undef, 'start', '20090201t20z') called at C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib/DateTime/Event/ICal.pm line 515 DateTime::Event::ICal::recur('DateTime::Event::ICal', 'freq', 'monthly', 'byday', 'ARRAY(0x11f805c)', 'dtstart', '20090201t20z') called at C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib/DateTime/Event/ICal.pm line 501 DateTime::Event::ICal::recur('DateTime::Event::ICal', 'count', 12, 'freq', 'monthly', 'byday', 'ARRAY(0x11f805c)', 'dtstart', '20090201t20z', ...) called at C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib/DateTime/Format/ICal.pm line 173 DateTime::Format::ICal::parse_recurrence(undef, 'recurrence', 'FREQ=MONTHLY;BYDAY=2WE;DTSTART=20090201T20Z;COUNT=12', 'dtstart', 'DateTime=HASH(0x11f772c)') called at C:/Documents and Settings/omengue/Documents/Eclipse/Test POE Scheduler/test-ical-recur.pl line 31 It looks like a conversion of the string value of dtstart to a DateTime object is missing...
