DateTime::TimeZone::OffsetOnly(3)

NAME
DateTime::TimeZone::OffsetOnly - A DateTime::TimeZone object that just contains an offset

SYNOPSIS
  my $offset_tz = DateTime::TimeZone->new( name => '-0300' );

DESCRIPTION
This class is used to provide the DateTime::TimeZone API needed by DateTime.pm, but with a fixed offset. An object in this class always returns the same offset as was given in its constructor, regardless of the date.

USAGE
This class has the same methods as a real time zone object, but the "category()" method returns undef.

* new ( offset => $offset )
    The value given to the offset parameter must be a string such as "+0300". Strings will be converted into numbers by the "DateTime::TimeZone::offset_as_seconds()" function.

* offset_for_datetime( $datetime )
    No matter what date is given, the offset provided to the constructor is always used.

* name(), short_name_for_datetime()
    Both of these methods return the offset in string form.
