To use this field type, you must have the Date::Manip package installed.

$sql_expression = $date_field->where($condition);The condition consists of one of the comparison operators '=', '<', '>', '>=' or '<=' followed by a date. The date may be in any format understood by the Date::Manip package, such as '1976-02-28' or 'two months ago'.
value method
$date = $date_field->value(\@results);The date is returned as 'YYYY-mm-dd', as required by the xsd:date type of XML Schema.
