Hi, I would like to report bug regarding DST and DateTime::Event::Cron library. Problem occurs when DST changes from CET to CEST ( on date Sun, 26 Mar, 2017 Time between 02:00 and 03:00 didn't exist because clock moved from 02:00 to 03:00 levanig gap in that period.) https://www.timeanddate.com/time/zone/croatia/zagreb Testing code in attachment Test Case: Cron expression: */7 * * * * iterator(after => DateTime->new( year => 2017, month => 03, day => 26, hour => 1, minute => 32, second => 0, time_zone => 'Europe/Zagreb')) Result: 2017-03-26T01:35:00 2017-03-26T01:42:00 2017-03-26T01:49:00 program died!!! If you look at result next line should have been 2017-03-26T01:56:00 and then next lineshould have been 2017-03-26T03:00:00 Thanks in advance for bugfix and the efforts for producing this valuable library Sincerely, Miroslav Ban

Thanks for reporting this. I refactored the increment/decrement logic such that DST transitions are now properly handled. Fixed in version 0.09.
