NAME

DateTime::TimeZone::Floating - A time zone that is always local

VERSION

version 2.47

SYNOPSIS

  my $floating_tz = DateTime::TimeZone::Floating->new;

DESCRIPTION

This class is used to provide the DateTime::TimeZone API needed by DateTime.pm, but for floating times, as defined by the RFC 2445 spec. A floating time has no time zone, and has an effective offset of zero.

USAGE

This class has the same methods as a real time zone object. The "short_name_for_datetime()" method returns the string ``floating'' and the "category()" method returns "undef".
