localtime

$lt = localtime()

• Overrides the core localtime function. The Time::tm object returned has methods with the same names as the structure fields they return. That is, to return the field mon, use the mon method:
  
  

  use Time::localtime; $lt = localtime();
  print $lt->mon;
  

  
  
  The field names (and therefore the method names) are the same as the names of the fields in the tm structure in the C file time.h: sec, min, hour, mday, mon, year, wday, yday, and isdst. You can access the fields either with the methods or by importing the fields into your namespace with the :FIELDS import tag and prepending tm_ to the method name (for example, $tm_mon).
