24 This module can convert a DateTime object (or any object that can be
25 converted to a DateTime object) to the number of seconds since the Mac
26 OS epoch.
27
28 Note that the Mac OS epoch is defined in the local time zone. This
29 means that these two pieces of code will print the same number of
30 seconds, even though they represent two datetimes 6 hours apart:
31
32 $dt = DateTime->new( year => 2003, month => 5, day => 2,
33 time_zone => 'Europe/Amsterdam' );
34 print $formatter->format_datetime($dt);
35
36 $dt = DateTime->new( year => 2003, month => 5, day => 2,
37 time_zone => 'America/Chicago' );
38 print $formatter->format_datetime($dt);
39
40 Mac OS X is a Unix system, and uses the Unix epoch
41 (1970-01-01T00:00:00). Use DateTime::Format::Epoch::Unix instead.
42
44 Most of the methods are the same as those in DateTime::Format::Epoch.
45 The only difference is the constructor.
46
47 ยท new()
48
49 Constructor of the formatter/parser object. It has no parameters.

53 list. See http://lists.perl.org/ for more details.
