Tie-Scalar-Timestamp version 0.01 ================================= This is a VERY simple class that creates readonly scalars that always return the current timestamp. By default, it uses the format 'yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss' (or, in strftime notation, '%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S') and local time. You can optionally pass a hashref of options to the call to tie to specify a pattern and whether to use UTC time instead of local time. A variables tied to this class is readonly, and attempting to assign to it will raise an exception.
