NAME¶
XMLTV::Date - Date parsing routines for the xmltv package
SEE ALSO¶
Date::Manip
"parse_date()"¶
Wrapper for "Date::Manip::ParseDate()" that does two things: firstly,
if the year is not specified it chooses between last year, this year and next
year depending on which date would be closest to now. (If only one of those
dates is valid, for example because day-of-week is specified, then the valid
one is chosen; if the time can only be parsed without adding an explicit year
then that is chosen.) Secondly, an exception is thrown if the date cannot be
parsed.
Argument is a single string.
