NAME

       DateTime::TimeZone::OffsetOnly - A DateTime::TimeZone object that just contains an offset

VERSION

       version 1.51

SYNOPSIS

	 my $offset_tz = DateTime::TimeZone->new( name => '-0300' );

DESCRIPTION

       This class is used to provide the DateTime::TimeZone API needed by DateTime.pm, but with a fixed offset.  An object in this class always
       returns the same offset as was given in its constructor, regardless of the date.

USAGE

       This class has the same methods as a real time zone object, but the "category()" method returns undef.

   DateTime::TimeZone::OffsetOnly->new ( offset => $offset )
       The value given to the offset parameter must be a string such as "+0300".  Strings will be converted into numbers by the
       "DateTime::TimeZone::offset_as_seconds()" function.

   $tz->offset_for_datetime( $datetime )
       No matter what date is given, the offset provided to the constructor is always used.

   $tz->name()
   $tz->short_name_for_datetime()
       Both of these methods return the offset in string form.
