DateTime::Format::Strptime 1.0700

DateTime::Format::Strptime is a Perl module to parse and format strp and strf time patterns.

SYNOPSIS

use DateTime::Format::Strptime;

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

my $dt = $Strp->parse_datetime('23:16:42');

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



# Croak when things go wrong:
my $Strp = new DateTime::Format::Strptime(
pattern => '%T',
locale => 'en_AU',
time_zone => 'Australia/Melbourne',
on_error => 'croak',
);

$newpattern = $Strp->pattern('%Q');
# Unidentified token in pattern: %Q in %Q at line 34 of script.pl

# Do something else when things go wrong:
my $Strp = new DateTime::Format::Strptime(
pattern => '%T',
locale => 'en_AU',
time_zone => 'Australia/Melbourne',
on_error => &phone_police,
);

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