DateTime::TimeZone::OffsetOnly \- A DateTime::TimeZone object that just contains an offset
.SH "VERSION"

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
This class is used to provide the DateTime::TimeZone \s-1API\s0 needed by
DateTime.pm, but with a fixed offset.  An object in this class always
returns the same offset as was given in its constructor, regardless of
the date.
.SH "USAGE"
.IX Header "USAGE"
This class has the same methods as a real time zone object, but the
\&\f(CW\*(C`category()\*(C'\fR method returns undef.
.ie n .SS "DateTime::TimeZone::OffsetOnly\->new ( offset => $offset )"
.el .SS "DateTime::TimeZone::OffsetOnly\->new ( offset => \f(CW$offset\fP )"
.IX Subsection "DateTime::TimeZone::OffsetOnly->new ( offset => $offset )"
The value given to the offset parameter must be a string such as
\&\*(L"+0300\*(R".  Strings will be converted into numbers by the
\&\f(CW\*(C`DateTime::TimeZone::offset_as_seconds()\*(C'\fR function.
.ie n .SS "$tz\->offset_for_datetime( $datetime )"
.el .SS "\f(CW$tz\fP\->offset_for_datetime( \f(CW$datetime\fP )"
.IX Subsection "$tz->offset_for_datetime( $datetime )"
No matter what date is given, the offset provided to the constructor
is always used.
.ie n .SS "$tz\->\fIname()\fP"
.el .SS "\f(CW$tz\fP\->\fIname()\fP"
.IX Subsection "$tz->name()"
.ie n .SS "$tz\->\fIshort_name_for_datetime()\fP"
.el .SS "\f(CW$tz\fP\->\fIshort_name_for_datetime()\fP"
.IX Subsection "$tz->short_name_for_datetime()"
Both of these methods return the offset in string form.
