Operations such as + comparing two times, calculating a time a given amount of + time from another, or parsing international times are all + easily done. + + Date::Manip deals only with the Gregorian calendar (the + one currently in use). The Julian calendar defined leap + years as every 4th year. The Gregorian calendar improved + this by making every 100th year NOT a leap year, unless it + was also the 400th year. The Gregorian calendar has been + extrapolated back to the year 1000 AD and forward to the + year 9999 AD. Note that in historical context, the Julian + calendar was in use until 1582 when the Gregorian calendar + was adopted by the Catholic church. Protestant countries + did not accept it until later; Germany and Netherlands in + 1698, British Empire in 1752, Russia in 1918. Note that + the Gregorian calendar is itself imperfect. Each year is + on average 26 seconds too long, which means that every + 3,323 years, a day should be removed from the calendar. + No attempt is made to correct for that. + + Date::Manip is therefore not equipped to truly deal with + historacle dates, but should be able to perform + (virtually) any operation dealing with a modern time and + date. + + Among other things, Date::Manip allow you to: + + 1. Enter a date and be able to choose any format + conveniant + + 2. Compare two dates, entered in widely different formats + to determine which is earlier + + 3. Extract any information you want from ANY date using a + format string similar to the Unix date command + + 4. Determine the amount of time between two dates + + 5. Add a time offset to a date to get a second date (i.e. + determine the date 132 days ago or 2 years and 3 months + after Jan 2, 1992) + + 6. Work with dates with dates using international formats + (foreign month names, 12-10-95 referring to October rather than + December, etc.). + + Each of these tasks is trivial (one or two lines at most) + with this package. + + Although the word date is used extensively here, it is + actually somewhat misleading. Date::Manip works with the + full date AND time (year, month, day, hour, minute, + second). + diff --git a/devel/p5-Date-Manip/pkg-plist b/devel/p5-Date-Manip/pkg-plist new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..f2562279ce22 --- /dev/null +++ b/devel/p5-Date-Manip/pkg-plist @@ -0,0 +1,4 @@ +lib/perl5/man/man3/Date::Manip.3.gz +lib/perl5/site_perl/Date/Manip.pm +lib/perl5/site_perl/i386-freebsd/auto/Date/Manip/.packlist +@dirrm lib/perl5/site_perl/i386-freebsd/auto/Date/Manip |
