DateTime::Format::Strptime - Parse and format strp and strf time patterns

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use DateTime::Format::Strptime;

  my $Strp = new DateTime::Format::Strptime(
  				pattern     => '%T',
  				locale      => 'en_AU',
  				time_zone   => 'Melbourne/Australia',
  			);
  			
  my $dt = $Strp->parse_datetime('23:16:42');

  $Strp->format_datetime($dt);
	# 23:16:42

	
	
  # Stop croak so interactions work:

  my $Strp = new DateTime::Format::Strptime(
  				pattern 	=> '%T',
  				locale	    => 'en_AU',
  				time_zone	=> 'Melbourne/Australia',
  				on_error	=> 'undef',
  			);

  $pattern = $CGI->param('user_pattern');

  # This would normally croak with an invalid pattern:

  unless $newpattern {
      do_something_with($Strp->errmsg);
  }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module implements most of C<strptime(3)>, the POSIX function that
is the reverse of C<strftime(3)>, for C<DateTime>. While C<strftime>
takes a C<DateTime> and a pattern and returns a string, C<strptime> takes
a string and a pattern and returns the C<DateTime> object
associated.

=head1 CONSTRUCTOR

=over 4

=item * new( pattern=>$strptime_pattern )

Creates the format object. You must specify a pattern, you can also
specify a C<time_zone> and a C<locale>. If you specify a time zone
then any resulting C<DateTime> object will be in that time zone. If you
do not specify a C<time_zone> parameter, but there is a time zone in the
string you pass to C<parse_datetime>, then the resulting C<DateTime> will
use that time zone.

You can optionally use an on_error parameter. This parameter has three
valid options:

=over 4

=item * 'undef' 

(not undef, 'undef', it's a string not an undefined value)

This is the default behavior. The module will return undef whenever it
gets upset. The error can be accessed using the $object->errstr method.
This is the ideal behaviour for interactive use where a user might
provide an illegal pattern or a date that doesn't match the pattern.

=item * 'croak' 

(not croak, 'croak', it's a string, not a function)

This used to be the default behaviour. The module will croak with an
error message whenever it gets upset.

=item * sub{...} or \&subname

When given a code ref, the module will call that sub when it gets upset.
The sub receives two parameters: the object and the error message. Using
these two it is possible to emulate the 'undef' behavior. (Returning a
true value causes the method to return undef. Returning a false value
causes the method to bravely continue):

sub{$_[0]->{errmsg} = $_[1]; 1},

=head1 METHODS

This class offers the following methods.

=over 4

=item * parse_datetime($string)

Given a string in the pattern specified in the constructor, this method
will return a new C<DateTime> object.

If given a string that doesn't match the pattern, the formatter will
croak or return undef, depending on the setting of on_error in the constructor.

=item * format_datetime($datetime)

Given a C<DateTime> object, this methods returns a string formatted in
the object's format. This method is synonymous with C<DateTime>'s
strptime method.

=item * locale($locale)
=item * language($locale)

When given a locale, this method sets its locale appropriately. If
the locale is not understood, the method will croak or return undef
(depending on the setting of on_error in the constructor)

If successful this method returns the current locale. (After
processing as above).

For backwards compatability the language() method still exists. The
method is deprecated and you are advised to update. Using the language
method will result in a CORE::warn being generated.

=item * pattern($strptime_pattern)

When given a pattern, this method sets the object's pattern. If the
pattern is invalid, the method will croak or return undef (depending on
the value of $DateTime::Format::Strptime::CROAK)

If successful this method returns the current pattern. (After processing
as above)

=item * time_zone($time_zone)

When given a name, offset or C<DateTime::TimeZone> object, this method
sets the object's time zone. This effects the C<DateTime> object
returned by parse_datetime

If the time zone is invalid, the method will croak or return undef
(depending on the value of $DateTime::Format::Strptime::CROAK)

If successful this method returns the current pattern. (After processing
as above)

=item * errmsg

If the on_error behavior of the object is 'undef', error messages with
this method so you can work out why things went wrong.

This code emulates $DateTime::Format::Strptime::CROAK being true:

C<$Strp->pattern($pattern) or die $DateTime::Format::Strptime::errmsg>

=back

=head1 EXPORTS

There are no methods exported by default, however the following are
available:

=over 4

=item * strptime($strptime_pattern, $string)

Given a pattern and a string this function will return a new C<DateTime>
object.

=item * strftime($strftime_pattern, $datetime)

Given a pattern and a C<DateTime> object this function will return a
formatted string.

=back

=head1 STRPTIME PATTERN TOKENS

The following tokens are allowed in the pattern string for strptime
(parse_datetime):

=over 4

=item * %%

The % character.

=item * %a or %A

The weekday name according to the current locale, in abbreviated form or
the full name.

=item * %b or %B or %h

The month name according to the current locale, in abbreviated form or
the full name.

=item * %C

The century number (0-99).

=item * %d or %e

The day of month (1-31).

=item * %D

Equivalent to %m/%d/%y. (This is the American style date, very confusing
to non-Americans, especially since %d/%m/%y is	widely used in Europe.
The ISO 8601 standard pattern is %Y-%m-%d.)

=item * %g

The year corresponding to the ISO week number, but without the century
(0-99).

=item * %G

The year corresponding to the ISO week number.

=item * %H

The hour (0-23).

=item * %I

The hour on a 12-hour clock (1-12).

=item * %j

The day number in the year (1-366).

=item * %m

The month number (1-12).

=item * %M

The minute (0-59).

=item * %n

Arbitrary whitespace.

=item * %N

Nanoseconds. For other sub-second values use C<%[number]N>.

=item * %p

The equivalent of AM or PM according to the locale in use. (See
L<DateTime::Locale>)

=item * %r

Equivalent to %I:%M:%S %p.

=item * %R

Equivalent to %H:%M.

=item * %s

Number of seconds since the Epoch.

=item * %S

The second (0-60; 60 may occur for leap seconds. See
L<DateTime::LeapSecond>).

=item * %t

Arbitrary whitespace.

=item * %T

Equivalent to %H:%M:%S.

=item * %U

The week number with Sunday the first day of the week (0-53). The first
Sunday of January is the first day of week 1.

=item * %u

The weekday number (1-7) with Monday = 1. This is the C<DateTime> standard.

=item * %w

The weekday number (0-6) with Sunday = 0.

=item * %W

The week number with Monday the first day of the week (0-53). The first
Monday of January is the first day of week 1.

=item * %y

The year within century (0-99). When a century is not otherwise
specified, values in the range 69-99 refer to years in the twen- tieth
century (1969-1999); values in the range 00-68 refer to years in the
twenty-first century (2000-2068).

=item * %Y

The year, including century (for example, 1991).

=item * %z

An RFC-822/ISO 8601 standard time zone specification. (For example
+1100) [See note below]

=item * %Z

The timezone name. (For example EST -- which is ambiguous) [See note
below]

=back

=head1 NOTES

=over 4

=item * on_error

Default behavior of this module is now to return undef on erroring.

=head1 SUPPORT

Support for this module is provided via the datetime@perl.org email
list. See http://lists.perl.org/ for more details.

Alternatively, log them via the CPAN RT system via the web or email:

This makes it much easier for me to track things and thus means your
problem is less likely to be neglected.
