NAME

       DateTime::Format::W3CDTF - Parse and format W3CDTF datetime strings

SYNOPSIS

	 use DateTime::Format::W3CDTF;

	 my $w3c = DateTime::Format::W3CDTF->new;
	 my $dt = $w3c->parse_datetime( '2003-02-15T13:50:05-05:00' );

	 # 2003-02-15T13:50:05-05:00
	 $w3c->format_datetime($dt);

DESCRIPTION

       This module understands the W3CDTF date/time format, an ISO 8601 profile, defined at http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime.  This format as
       the native date format of RSS 1.0.

       It can be used to parse these formats in order to create the appropriate objects.

METHODS

       This API is currently experimental and may change in the future.

       o   new()

	   Returns a new W3CDTF parser object.

       o   parse_datetime($string)

	   Given a W3CDTF datetime string, this method will return a new "DateTime" object.

	   If given an improperly formatted string, this method may die.

       o   format_datetime($datetime)

	   Given a "DateTime" object, this methods returns a W3CDTF datetime string.

	   NOTE: As of version 0.4, format_datetime no longer attempts to truncate datetimes without a time component.	This is due to the fact
	   that "DateTime" doesn't distinguish between a date with no time component, and midnight.

       o   format_date($datetime)

	   Given a "DateTime" object, return a W3CDTF datetime string without the time component.

NAME

       DateTime::Format::Epoch::MacOS - Convert DateTimes to/from Mac OS epoch seconds

SYNOPSIS

	 use DateTime::Format::Epoch::MacOS;

	 my $dt = DateTime::Format::Epoch::MacOS->parse_datetime( 1051488000 );
	 DateTime::Format::Epoch::MacOS->format_datetime($dt);
	  # 1051488000

	 my $formatter = DateTime::Format::Epoch::MacOS->new();

	 my $dt2 = $formatter->parse_datetime( 1051488000 );

	 $formatter->format_datetime($dt2);
	  # 1051488000

DESCRIPTION

       This module can convert a DateTime object (or any object that can be converted to a DateTime object) to the number of seconds since the Mac
       OS epoch.

       Note that the Mac OS epoch is defined in the local time zone. This means that these two pieces of code will print the same number of
       seconds, even though they represent two datetimes 6 hours apart:

	   $dt = DateTime->new( year => 2003, month => 5, day => 2,
				time_zone => 'Europe/Amsterdam' );
	   print $formatter->format_datetime($dt);

	   $dt = DateTime->new( year => 2003, month => 5, day => 2,
				time_zone => 'America/Chicago' );
	   print $formatter->format_datetime($dt);

       Mac OS X is a Unix system, and uses the Unix epoch (1970-01-01T00:00:00). Use DateTime::Format::Epoch::Unix instead.

METHODS

       Most of the methods are the same as those in DateTime::Format::Epoch.  The only difference is the constructor.

       o   new()

	   Constructor of the formatter/parser object. It has no parameters.
