    # Here's how this works:
    # Detect what kind of parameter we're dealing with and determine
    # what type of sprintf-placeholder to return (%d, %02d, %s or whatever).
    # Then, we're setting up an array, specific to the current format,
    # that can be used later on to compute the components of the placeholders
    # one by one when we get the components of the current time later on
    # via localtime.

    # So, we're parsing the "yyyy/MM" format once, replace it by, say
    # "%04d:%02d" and store an array that says "for the first placeholder,
    # get the localtime-parameter on index #5 (which is years since the
    # epoch), add 1900 to it and pass it on to sprintf(). For the 2nd
    # placeholder, get the localtime component at index #2 (which is hours)
    # and pass it on unmodified to sprintf.

    # So, the array to compute the time format at logtime contains
    # as many elements as the original SimpleDateFormat contained. Each
    # entry is a array ref, holding an array with 2 elements: The index
    # into the localtime to obtain the value and a reference to a subroutine
    # to do computations eventually. The subroutine expects the original
    # localtime() time component (like year since the epoch) and returns
    # the desired value for sprintf (like y+1900).

    # This way, we're parsing the original format only once (during system
    # startup) and during runtime all we do is call localtime *once* and
    # run a number of blazingly fast computations, according to the number
    # of placeholders in the format.

=head1 NAME

Log::Log4perl::DateFormat - Log4perl advanced date formatter helper class

=head1 SYNOPSIS


      # Either in a log4j.conf file ...
    log4perl.appender.Logfile.layout = \
        Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout
    log4perl.appender.Logfile.layout.ConversionPattern = %d{MM/dd HH:mm} %m

      # ... or via the PatternLayout class ...
    use Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout;
    my $layout = Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout->new(
        "%d{HH:mm:ss,SSS} %m");

      # ... or even directly with this helper class:
    use Log::Log4perl::DateFormat;
    my $format = Log::Log4perl::DateFormat->new("HH:mm:ss,SSS");
    my $time = time();
    print $format->format($time), "\n";
        # => "17:02:39,000"

=head1 DESCRIPTION

C<Log::Log4perl::DateFormat> is a helper class for the
advanced date formatting functions in C<Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout>,
and adheres (mostly) to the log4j SimpleDateFormat spec available on

    http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html

It supports the following placeholders:

    Symbol Meaning              Presentation    Example
    ------ -------              ------------    -------
    G      era designator       (Text)          AD
    e      epoch seconds        (Number)        1315011604
    y      year                 (Number)        1996
    M      month in year        (Text & Number) July & 07
    d      day in month         (Number)        10
    h      hour in am/pm (1~12) (Number)        12
    H      hour in day (0~23)   (Number)        0
    m      minute in hour       (Number)        30
    s      second in minute     (Number)        55
    S      millisecond          (Number)        978
    E      day in week          (Text)          Tuesday
    D      day in year          (Number)        189
    F      day of week in month (Number)        2 (2nd Wed in July)
    w      week in year         (Number)        27
    W      week in month        (Number)        2
    a      am/pm marker         (Text)          PM
    k      hour in day (1~24)   (Number)        24
    K      hour in am/pm (0~11) (Number)        0
    z      time zone            (Text)          Pacific Standard Time
    Z      RFC 822 time zone    (Text)          -0800
    '      escape for text      (Delimiter)
    ''     single quote         (Literal)       '

    Presentation explanation:

    (Text): 4 or more pattern letters--use full form, < 4--use short or
            abbreviated form if one exists.

    (Number): the minimum number of digits. Shorter numbers are
              zero-padded to this amount. Year is handled
              specially; that is, if the count of 'y' is 2, the
              Year will be truncated to 2 digits.

    (Text & Number): 3 or over, use text, otherwise use number.

For example, if you want to format the current Unix time in C<"MM/dd HH:mm">
format, all you have to do is specify it in the %d{...} section of the
PatternLayout in a Log4perl configuration file:

    # log4j.conf
    # ...
    log4perl.appender.Logfile.layout = \
        Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout
    log4perl.appender.Logfile.layout.ConversionPattern = %d{MM/dd HH:mm} %m

Same goes for Perl code defining a PatternLayout for Log4perl:

    use Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout;
    my $layout = Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout->new(
        "%d{MM/dd HH:mm} %m");

Or, on a lower level, you can use the class directly:

    use Log::Log4perl::DateFormat;
    my $format = Log::Log4perl::DateFormat->new("MM/dd HH:mm");
    my $time = time();
    print $format->format($time), "\n";

While the C<new()> method is expensive, because it parses the format
strings and sets up all kinds of structures behind the scenes,
followup calls to C<format()> are fast, because C<DateFormat> will
just call C<localtime()> and C<sprintf()> once to return the formatted
date/time string.

So, typically, you would initialize the formatter once and then reuse
it over and over again to display all kinds of time values.

Also, for your convenience,
the following predefined formats are available, just as outlined in the
log4j spec:

    Format   Equivalent                     Example
    ABSOLUTE "HH:mm:ss,SSS"                 "15:49:37,459"
    DATE     "dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss,SSS"     "06 Nov 1994 15:49:37,459"
    ISO8601  "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,SSS"      "1999-11-27 15:49:37,459"
    APACHE   "[EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss yyyy]"   "[Wed Mar 16 15:49:37 2005]"

So, instead of passing

    Log::Log4perl::DateFormat->new("HH:mm:ss,SSS");

you could just as well say

    Log::Log4perl::DateFormat->new("ABSOLUTE");

and get the same result later on.

=head2 Known Shortcomings

The following placeholders are currently I<not> recognized, unless
someone (and that could be you :) implements them:

    F day of week in month
    w week in year
    W week in month
    k hour in day
    K hour in am/pm
    z timezone (but we got 'Z' for the numeric time zone value)

Also, C<Log::Log4perl::DateFormat> just knows about English week and
month names, internationalization support has to be added.

=head1 Millisecond Times

More granular timestamps down to the millisecond are also supported,
just provide the millsecond count as a second argument:

    # Advanced time, resultion in milliseconds
    use Time::HiRes;
    my ($secs, $msecs) = Time::HiRes::gettimeofday();
    print $format->format($secs, $msecs), "\n";
        # => "17:02:39,959"
