Revision history for Perl module DateTime::Format::Strptime
Note on version conventions:
0.0000
| | |
| | +- Minor Decimal
| +---- Major Decimal
+------- Whole Number
* Whole numbers are rewrite releases. They contain major rewrites
or alterations to the API. Read the docs before using them.
* Major decimal number is patch release. Some coding has changed
but the API remains the same (or is extended). Upgrading to
these should not change any expected behaviour, however it
will alter buggy behaviour. Read the docs and check if you've
been using work-arounds before using them.
* Minor decimal number is a doc or installer patch only. If you have
the module installed and understand how it works, you don't need
this release.

1.00.02 Tue, 29 Apr 2003 07:03:19 + 1000
- the 'please the testers' release
- Fixed a test that only worked in DateTime was from CVS

- Removed a diag() in test 1 that was just there for
testing the test
- Added a linebreak to the end of the MANIFEST
1.0100 Sun, 11 May 2003 13:54:36 + 1000
- the 'nanozone' release
- If we have the latest DateTime we run the test mentioned above
- Fixed my version format as advised by Iain Truskett
if it still doesn't work it's because of me, not him
- Added the ability to handle nanoseconds as requested by
Michael Goltze.
- Got Time Zones working, including mapping non-ambiguous TLAs
offsets and Olsen names (the latter uses the %q token)
1.0101 Tue, 13 May 2003 07:58:23 + 1000
- the 'oldtimers' release
- Fixed a test that was broken if DateTime::TimeZone was not
version 0.13 or above.
1.0102 Fri, 16 May 2003 07:28:18 + 1000
- the 'wonky test' release
- Fixed the same test as above. Think I actually succeeded
this time!
1.0103 Wed, 28 May 2003 20:10:57 +1000
- the 'What's up Docs' release
- Applied doc patches from Iain Truskett (Thanks!)
- Clarified parameter discrepancy between synopsis and docs
(Thanks Chris Winters)
1.0200 Wed, 28 May 2003 21:02:03 +1000
- the 'Proclavity to croak' release
- The docs for Time::Local talk about the 'proclavity to croak'
which basically means the module croaks easily. So did this
one until now.
Until now, if you allowed a user to specify a pattern and they
entered one that was non parsable, this module would croak
causing your script to croak. This is a Bad Thing (tm).
The behaviour now remains the same, however if you set
$DateTime::Format::StrpTime::CROAK to false, methods will
return undef rather than croaking.
$DateTime::Format::StrpTime::errmsg will tell you what went
wrong.
The default is to continue to croak. This means you have to
delibrately turn it off. Hopefully you'll change you script
to do this at the same time you change it to check the
return values of the methods :)
1.0300 Sat, 07 Jun 2003 10:40:23 +1000
- the 'Better way to die' release
- The above has changed by request of Dave Rolsky and Iain
Truskett (Thanks!). We now allow each object to have its
own behavior.
- The default behavior has been changed to returning undef.
This was requested by someone (tell me if it was you!) and
made a lot of sense to me.
- Never released to CPAN
1.0301 Wed, 25 Jun 2003 22:40:12 +1000
- the 'Day of Year' release
- Updated to handle the post 0.12 DateTime that now
validates dates. Still handles old DateTime.
1.0302 Sat, 28 Jun 2003 09:15:21 +1000
- the 'Broken Windows' release
- Test 004 was failing on Windows due to the path delimiter
being a backslash rather than a slash. This release should
also fix Strptime for Mac users, although I've had no
complaints from such users. (Myself being one of the only
ones currently using Strptime AFAIK!) Thanks Ron Hill for
the bug report.
1.0400 Sun, 10 Aug 2003 00:22:00 +1000
- the 'locale' release
- Applied patches from Joshua Hoblitt to move the the brand
new DateTime::Locale rather than the old ::Language modules
- Implemented %x, %X and %c for locale formats
- Fixed a bug on the two digit year determinator
- Added a test for locales known as 004locale.t
- This is a major change and you should install this release if
you are using DateTime >= 0.14 (the first release with Locale)
1.0500 Wed, 18 Aug 2004 17:24:32 +1000
- the 'Jean Forget' release
- Adapted and applied patches from Jean Forget to allow
day names and month names to have \W characters and to
allow am/pm values from other locales
- Jean's patch also included some doc patches
- Patched the synopsis a Jean suggestion to demonstrate
how to use the non-default error behaviors
- Added tests for these bugs
- Added t/more/* and the make test_more target so I can
test every locale if I want to.
- It's over a year since I deprecated the language parameter so
I've now removed it. You've had a year of warnings!
- This is a major change and you should install this release if
you use any locale other than en.
