Re: How to check if a DateTime is invalid (again - but this time without using eval)?

I don't care about this since I don't use $@ (see my previous posts).

This is the way I want to go. In my case, the eval even doesn't need to
explicitly return something. The only thing I am interested in is if
DateTime -> new() has died inside the eval or not. In case it has, the
eval will return undef; in case it hasn't, eval will return a valid
date-time.

Thank you very much for your help!
