Date::Manip::Changes6(3)                       User Contributed Perl Documentation                      Date::Manip::Changes6(3)



NAME
       Date::Manip::Changes6 - backward incompatible changes in Date::Manip 6.xx

SYNOPSIS
       This describes all backwards incompatible changes made to the Date::Manip module starting at version 6.00.

DESCRIPTION
       For the most part, Date::Manip has remained backward compatible at every release, but occasionally, a change is made
       which is backward incompatible. These are documented here.  Major changes are marked with asterisks.

6.05
       %z format
           In Date::Manip 5.xx, the %z format in UnixDate printed the offset in the form -0500. In 6.00, I changed that to
           -05:00:00, but this broke RFC 822 compliance.

           I've changed %z back to -0500, and introduced a new format (%N) which returns -05:00:00.

           Incidentally, this is the LAST unused letter, so I am now going to have to either stop adding formats, or add some
           extended format syntax. Not sure yet which, but this may involve a backwards incompatible change in the future.

BUGS AND QUESTIONS
       Please refer to the Date::Manip::Problems documentation for information on submitting bug reports or questions to the
       author.
