Subject: Date::Manip::Recur->dates() fails when passed strings
Date::Manip::Recur(3pm) states, about dates(): $start and $end are either undef, or dates which can be used to limit the set of dates passed back (they can be Date::Manip::Date objects or strings that can be parsed). However, any attempt to pass a string fails: $ perl -MDate::Manip -le '$r = new Date::Manip::Recur; $r->parse("0:0:0:1:0:0:0:0"); print $r->dates("2011-03-01", "2011-03-10");' Can't call method "err" without a package or object reference at /usr/share/perl5/Date/Manip/Recur.pm line 913.

One problem in your example... you've got a malformed recurrence (there are only 7 fields in a valid recurrence, and you've got 8). Since (after correcting this), I still got an error, my guess is that this is simply a typo in your sample script. In any case, I did find a problem with the way recurrences were being handled when you passed in alternate ranges. I've corrected that and it'll be in the new release. If you need a fixed version before then, please email me at sbeck@cpan.org and I'll get you a pre-release.

Oops! I'm still coming to grips with Date::Manip, so my shell history is full of such attempts. :) Show quoted text

Thanks! I just worked around it with parse(scalar localtime) in the meantime. -- aphorism, n.: A concise, clever statement. afterism, n.: A concise, clever statement you don't think of until too late. -- James Alexander Thom

Never mind, I got my bug reports confused. :) -- Breeding rabbits is a hare raising experience.
