[Ocaml-lib-devel] GregorianDate module for OCaml

[Richard J. <ri...@an...>]

Attached is an implementation of the important parts of Perl's
Date::Calc module in Objective CAML.

The coverage is about 50% - if I feel inspired I'll make up the other
50% later this afternoon.  I deliberately omitted some of the
functions in Perl Date::Calc which involved either i18n or access to
the system clock.  (Access to the system clock is already adequately
provided by the Unix module).

There is also a test suite which covers some of the tests supplied in
Date::Calc.  It's definitely a good idea to include the tests with
ExtLib, and to have them run on a regular basis.

This code is very much a translation of the Perl source code, which is
distributed under either Artistic or GPL or LGPL.  I've asked the
upstream author if the linking exception is possible, but have
received no reply yet.

Rich.
