Currently it handles many date +calculations, date math (addition and subtraction), and provides +convenient methods for retrieving portions of a date/time. + +This module properly supports the Olson time zone database, meaning +that historical time zone information, and more importantly, daylight +saving time rules, can be handled transparently, simply by setting the +correct time zone. This is done by using the DateTime::TimeZone +module. |
