=head1 NAME

DBIx::Class::InflateColumn::DateTime - Auto-create DateTime objects from date and datetime columns.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

Load this component and then declare one or more 
columns to be of the datetime, timestamp or date datatype.

  package Event;
  __PACKAGE__->load_components(qw/InflateColumn::DateTime Core/);
  __PACKAGE__->add_columns(
    starts_when => { data_type => 'datetime' }
  );

Then you can treat the specified column as a L<DateTime> object.

  print "This event starts the month of ".
    $event->starts_when->month_name();

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module figures out the type of DateTime::Format::* class to 
inflate/deflate with based on the type of DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::* 
that you are using.  If you switch from one database to a different 
one your code should continue to work without modification (though note
that this feature is new as of 0.07, so it may not be perfect yet - bug
reports to the list very much welcome).

For more help with using components, see L<DBIx::Class::Manual::Component/USING>.

=head2 register_column

Chains with the L<DBIx::Class::Row/register_column> method, and sets
up datetime columns appropriately.  This would not normally be
directly called by end users.
