NAME
       DateTime::Format::Builder::Parser::generic - Useful routines

VERSION
       version 0.83

METHODS
   Useful
       new

       Standard constructor. Returns a blessed hash; any arguments are placed in the hash. This
       is useful for storing information between methods.

       generic_parser

       This is a method provided solely for the benefit of "Parser" implementations. It semi-
       neatly abstracts a lot of the work involved.

       Basically, it takes parameters matching the assorted callbacks from the parser
       declarations and makes a coderef out of it all.

       Currently recognized callbacks are:

       o   on_match

       o   on_fail

       o   preprocess

       o   postprocess

   Methods for subclassing
       These are methods you should define when writing your own subclass.

       Note: these methods do not exist in this class. There is no point trying to call
       "$self->SUPER::do_match( ... )".

       do_match

       "do_match" is the first phase. Arguments are the date and @args. "self", "label", "args".
       Return value must be defined if you match successfully.

       post_match

       "post_match" is called after the appropriate callback out of "on_match"/"on_fail" is done.
       It's passed the date, the return value from "do_match" and the parsing hash.

       Its return value is used as the "post" argument to the "postprocess" callback, and as the
       second argument to "make".

       make

       "make" takes the original input, the return value from "post_match" and the parsing hash
       and should return a "DateTime" object or undefined.

   Delegations
       For use of "Parser", this module also delegates "valid_params" and "params". This is just
       convenience to save typing the following:

           DateTime::Format::Builder::Parser->valid_params(...)

       Instead we get to type:

           $self->valid_params(...);
           __PACKAGE__->valid_params(...);

WRITING A SUBCLASS
       Rather than attempt to explain how it all works, I think it's best if you take a look at
       Regex.pm and Strptime.pm as examples and work from there.
