Oracle and Novell File Reservations of Rights RE SCO's Bankruptcy Sale Plan
Oracle, as well as Novell, have both filed a Reservation of Rights objecting to SCO's Motion in bankruptcy court to sell off all the assets, all but the litigation and whatever is on the list of excluded assets. If you recall, Oracle made an appearance in connection with an earlier SCO sales scheme, and now it says SCO needs to tell it more detailed information about the new plan and amend it, if any Oracle contracts are involved. "At this time, Oracle does not consent to any proposed assignment or transfer of use via the Sale Motion or otherwise, as proposed transfers must be in compliance with the license terms," Oracle tells the court. It has copyrights and patents on this software, it points out. Not that it needs to mention that this week. We are aware.

Convert::NLS_DATE_FORMAT(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			     Convert::NLS_DATE_FORMAT(3pm)

NAME

       Convert::NLS_DATE_FORMAT - Convert Oracle NLS_DATE_FORMAT <-> strftime Format Strings

SYNOPSIS

	 use Convert::NLS_DATE_FORMAT qw(oracle2posix posix2oracle);
	 my $strptime = oracle2posix($NLS_DATE_FORMAT);
	 $NLS_DATE_FORMAT = posix2oracle($strftime);

DESCRIPTION

       Convert Oracle's NLS_DATE_FORMAT string into a strptime format string, or the reverse.

   Functions
       oracle2posix
	   Takes an Oracle NLS_DATE_FORMAT string and converts it into formatting string compatible with "strftime" or "strptime".

	     my $format = oracle2posix('YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'); # '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'

	   Character sequences that should not be translated may be enclosed within double quotes, as specified in the Oracle documentation.

	     my $format = oracle2posix('YYYY-MM-DD"T"HH24:MI:SS'); # '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S'

       posix2oracle
	   Takes a "strftime" or "strptime" formatting string and converts it into an Oracle NLS_DATE_FORMAT string. It is possible to create
	   strings which Oracle will not accept as valid NLS_DATE_FORMAT strings.

	     my $format = posix2oracle('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'); # 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'

   EXPORT
       None by default. "oracle2posix" and "posix2oracle" when asked.
