Eric, on 2007-08-26:
To work around this, I've modified the addition so that instead of adding 1
day, it adds 1.5 days. This extra half a day is removed by the
theDateTime.earliestTime() call but is enough to overcome the DST addition
problem. Ugly hack.
I had the same problem once in the eXtremeManagement Plone product.
For a monthly overview I needed to do something for every day of the
month. I worked around it with the code below.
day = 1
date = DateTime(2007, 10, 1) # 1 October 2007
while True:
# skipped some lines irrelevant to the DateTime problem
day += 1
try:
date = DateTime(self.year, self.month, day)
except:
break
Hm, that should probably be "except DateTime.DateTime.DateError" but
there is not really anything else that can go wrong here.
A ConflictError can go wrong here, which is an additional and important
reason not to have a bare except. There are good reasons without that,
as well.
