This module is intended to provide a general-purpose date and
datetime type for perl. You have a Class::Date class for absolute
date and datetime, and have a Class::Date::Rel class for relative
dates.
You can use ``+'', ``-'', ``<'' and ``>'' operators as with native
perl data types.
The Class::MakeMethods framework allows Perl class developers to quickly
define common types of methods. When a module "use"s a subclass of
Class::MakeMethods, it can select from the supported method types, and
specify a name for each method desired. The methods are dynamically
generated and installed in the calling package.
This distribution facilitates the run-time generation of classes which
inherit from a base class and some optional selection of mixin classes.
A factory is provided to generate the mixed classes with multiple
inheritance. A NEXT method allows method redispatch up the inheritance
chain.
This package provides a framework for rapid Object Oriented Perl
application development. It consists of a number of base classes that are
similar to the C++/STL framework, plus a number of helper classes which
provide the glue to transparently generate common functions, and will
enable you to put your Perl application together very quickly.
This module implements a minimal lightweight exception object. It is meant
to be a compromise between more basic solutions like Carp which can only
print information and cannot handle exception objects, and more complex
solutions like Exception::Class which can be used to define complex inline
exceptions and has a number of module dependencies.
Config::JFDI is an implementation of Catalyst::Plugin::ConfigLoader
that exists outside of Catalyst.
Essentially, Config::JFDI will scan a directory for files matching a
certain name. If such a file is found which also matches an extension
that Config::Any can read, then the configuration from that file will
be loaded.
Apache Ant, a Java-based build tool, conceptually similar to make.
Ant uses XML build files that defines a set of targets. Each target
has dependencies (other targets) and contains a set of tasks to
perform.
There are tasks for various things, like compiling ("javac"),
copying ("copy"), deleting ("delete"), executing other programs
("java", "exec", "execon", etc.), stylesheet transformations
("style") and so on.
This module provide a single function called dump_xml() that takes
a list of perl values as argument and produce a string as result.
The string returned is an XML document that represents any perl
data structures passed in. Reference loops are handled correctly.

Date::Manip is a series of modules designed to make any common date/time
operation easy to do. Operations such as comparing two times, calculating a
time a given amount of time from another, or parsing international times are
all easily done.
This module understands the formats used by PostgreSQL for its DATE, TIME,
TIMESTAMP, and INTERVAL data types. It can be used to parse these formats in
order to create DateTime or DateTime::Duration objects, and it can take a
DateTime or DateTime::Duration object and produce a string representing it in a
format accepted by PostgreSQL.
