Hi All,
I'm new to this list so please forgive me if I'm talking about
anything that have been previously covered.
I've been working on getting I18N into CGI::Application recently. I've
got so far, but now I'm looking at working out the dates properly. It
seems that this module is clearly the way to go but there is a big snag...
CGI::Application and Titanium aim to have the option of being pure perl,
making it possible for developers to easily distribute all the required
Perl modules along with the app.
I see that DateTime uses XS and do some of it's dependencies. As far as
I can see from:-
http://deps.cpantesters.org/?module=DateTime&perl=5.10.0&os=any+OS&pureperl=on
DateTime
DateTime::Locale
Params::Validate
List::MoreUtils
Params::Validate isn't an issue as it's got a Pure Perl option. But the
others certainly are.
So my questions are:-
Is there any effort currently being made towards having a Pure Perl option?
How hard would it be to have a Pure Perl option?
Thank you for your time
Lyle
