DateTim...al::VMS(3)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so welcome to the DateTim...al::VMS(3) page, bestie — yes, that's the manual name, and it's from the User Contributed Perl Documentation. This one is all about DateTime::TimeZone::Local::VMS, whose whole job is: determine the local system's time zone on VMS. 🦋

🎀 VERSION 🎀

The version is 2.64. Periodt. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

my $tz = DateTime::TimeZone->new( name => 'local' );

my $tz = DateTime::TimeZone::Local->TimeZone();

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This module gives you methods for determining the local time zone on a VMS platform. That's the whole assignment. 🫶

NOTE: This is basically a stub pending an implementation by someone who knows something about VMS. So like, it's a placeholder era, not a full implementation era. 😭 No cap.

🔥 HOW THE TIME ZONE IS DETERMINED 🔥

This class tries the following methods of determining the local time zone:

• %ENV — we check the following environment variables:
  • TZ
  • SYS$TIMEZONE_RULE
  • SYS$TIMEZONE_NAME
  • UCX$TZ
  • TCPIP$TZ

That's the list, and we're keeping it in order — icon behavior only. 💜
