I'm not sure anyone is interested but I thought I would pass this along. I have started using Class::DBI and was hoping I could also use DateTime with it. Class::DBI has some hooks to allow for any type of Object to represent Time. However the one limitation it has is that you must be able to call a method with no parameters to produce the proper output for the database. So the only way I could use DateTime with it is if $datetime->somename() produces the correct format for the database I'm using.
I have taken a look at the DateTime-Format-MySQL and it can produce the formats required however with out being able to get the format through a call as described above it will never work with Class::DBI.
This isn't exactly a DateTime problem or a Class::DBI problem or a Database problem just an interaction issue that someone may or may not be interested in looking at. However as the two objects operate today I don't see them being compatible.
If you are interested and have any additional questions feel free to ask.
Thanks Matthew McGillis
