NAME

6       DateTime::Locale::Base - Base class for individual locale objects
7       (deprecated)

VERSION

10       version 1.39
11

SYNOPSIS

13         use base 'DateTime::Locale::Base';
14

DESCRIPTION

16       This module is no longer used by the code in the distribution. It is
17       still included for the sake of any code out in the wild that may
18       subclass this class.  This class will be removed in a future release.
19

DEFAULT FORMATS

21       Each locale has a set of four default date and time formats.  They are
22       distinguished by length, and are called "full", "long", "medium", and
23       "short".  Each locale may have a different default length which it uses
24       when its "$locale->date_format_default()",
25       "$locale->time_format_default()", or
26       "$locale->datetime_format_default()" methods are called.
27
28       This can be changed by calling the "$locale->set_default_date_format()"
29       or "$locale->set_default_time_format()" methods.  These methods accept
30       a string which must be one of "full", "long", "medium", or "short".
31

NAME FORMS

33       Most names come in a number of variations. First, they may vary based
34       on length, with wide, abbreviated, and narrow forms. The wide form is
35       typically the full name, while the narrow form is often a single
36       character. The narrow forms may not be unique. For example, "T" may be
37       used for Tuesday and Thursday in the English narrow forms.
38
39       Many names also distinguish between "format" and "stand-alone" forms of
40       a pattern. The format pattern is used when the thing in question is
41       being placed into a larger string. The stand-alone form is used when
42       displaying that item by itself, for example in a calendar.
43

297
298       •   $locale->available_formats()
299
300           A list of format names, like "MMdd" or "yyyyMM". This should be the
