- Mark Ivey <mivey@r2tech.com> add '@' as a synonym for 'at'.
Fixed typos.
- Bryan Henderson <bryanh@giraffe-data.com> sent in a patch to
allow NOW => 0 so that ParseDate can be used to parse relative
times.
- ewan@baremetal.com sent in a patch adding a bit of ISO 8601
support.
- David Alban <david@responsible.com> doesn't like allowing the
hour 24:00. I agree. Gone if you have VALIDATE=>1.
- Still to be done: the support the large number of ISO 8601
date formats: http://hydracen.com/dx/iso8601.htm
2003.0211 2003-02-11
- Mike Cramer <cramer@webkist.com> sent a patch to Timezone to
handle changes in $ENV{TZ}.
- Rani Pinchuk <rani@cpan.org> sent in a definition for the
CEST timezone.
- On Phil.Moore@msdw.com's behalf the timezone 'MET DST' is now
supported.
2002.1001 2002-10-01
- No real changes, just added a license.
101.062001 2001-06-20
- Paul Zimmer <pzimmer@bepress.com> found that '7/17/01' with
PREFER_FUTURE failed badly. Fixed. This was also submitted
by Dana Burd <DBurd@cpr.org>.
- Ben Daglish <bdaglish@yahoo.com> noted that array context
was implying WHOLE and DATE_REQUIRED. Fixed.
- Streppone Cosimo <cstrep@idgroup.it> requested support for
postgresql's date format ("dd/mm/yyyy hh:mn:ss +tzo")
- Ameeth Linus Daniel <linus@teil.soft.net> found that IST wasn't
a defined timezone. I've defined it as +0530, but I'm not
positive that's correct.
- Gautam Tripathi <dayalpura@hotmail.com> sent in a fix for
timezone offset calculations making them consistent across
all systems (no more problems with differing interpretations
of negative modulus operations).
- Mike Nerone <mnerone@idworld.net> requested the syntax
"4 days ago". He says that that syntax is suppored by
GNU date. This was also requested by Townsend, John E.
<John.Townsend@lexis-nexis.com>.
- Anton Berezin <tobez@heechee.tobez.org> notice that ParseDate
couldn't handle "Sunday, 06-Nov-94 08:49:37 GMT" and sent
in a patch.
100.010301 2000-01-03
- W. Phillip Moore <Phil.Moore@msdw.com> reproted a Y2K bug: it could
not parse 'Jan 1 2000 10:30:30AM'. Fixed. This is embarassing
beasue <alangmead@boston.com> sent in a patch Dec 9th!
99.111701 1999-11-17
- Allen Smith <easmith@beatrice.rutgers.edu> noticed that VALIDATE
wouldn't accept hours > 0...
- Hugh C Kennedy <kennedyh@engin.umich.edu> contributed patches to
parse months like `Jan.' in additon to `Jan' and `January'.
99.062401 1999-06-24:
- Randy Kobes <randy@theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca> sent in a fix for
Timezone.pm that allows all tests to pass on MSWin32.
99.062301:
- Eric Prestemon <ecp@adknowledge.com> noticed that %y would print
"0" in 2000, not "00" as it should. Fixed.
- Parsedate() now checks for wantarray() and returns what remains of
its input when called from array context.
- Added another parsing option: VALIDATE. When VALIDATE is set,
silly values for hours, months, etc will be rejected. Like the
32nd of December will no longer be new years day.
99.062201 1999-06-22
- Optionally return fractional seconds from ParseDate (including
the SYBASE formatted ones). Provide for printing fractional
seconds in CTime. Changes from Douglas Wegscheid
<wegscd@whirlpool.com>
99.061601 1999-06-16
- More attempts to support systems whose time function isn't
centered around Jan 1, 1970 midnight GMT.
99.061501 1999-05-15
- Fixed a couple of compiler warnings. Did extensive testing with
dates beyond 2000 and before 1970. Quite a few code changes.
Old code would have worked in many > 2000 cases but broke
terribly for dates < 1970.
New code should work until year 10k. Well, there's one problem:
unix time format is only 32 bits, signed.
98.112901 1998-11-29
- Slight change to avoid an "Use of uninitialized value" error
pointed out by Mike Coffin <mhc@Eng.Sun.COM>.
98.112801 1998-11-12
- It turns out that Sybase emits time values like "3:09:59:000PM". The
last three digits are milliseconds. Such times are now recognized
but the milliseconds are ignored. Change requested by
ryanmcleish <ryan@email.labmed.umn.edu>.
- Corrected the documenation on strftime conversions for %d and %e. The
code and the documentation now agree:
%d - 01 to 31
%e - 1 to 31
98.052201 1998-05-22
- Minor bugfix: didn't recognize 5/18/1998.
97.092101 1997-09-21
- Fix a 5.004 warning.
- Add support for "June 4, 1997"
96.110801 1996-11-08
- Added support for negative relative times.
- Bugfix: "now" by itself was ignored.
- Bugfix: could not combine "now" with time offsets (only date offsets)
96.032801 1996-03-28
- Added support for "TZN
96.032702 1996-03-27
- This is the first release to use the Makefile.PL
packaging. There are many changes with repect to
previous releases. All modules now running with -w and
use strict.
- CTime.pm: should be faster
- ParseDate.pm: core logic changed, more dates parsed.
- datetime.t: more tests
- Timezone.pm: ripped out tzset code and replaced it
with code from Graham Barr <bodg@tiuk.ti.com>
