=head1 NAME

Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::DatetimeYearToMonth - Datetime year to month column metadata.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::DatetimeYearToMonth;

  $col = 
    Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::DatetimeYearToMonth->new(...);

  $col->make_methods(...);
  ...

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Objects of this class store and manipulate metadata for "datetime year to month" columns in a database.  Column metadata objects store information about columns (data type, size, etc.) and are responsible for creating object methods that manipulate column values.

This class inherits from L<Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Datetime>. Inherited methods that are not overridden will not be documented a second time here.  See the L<Rose::DB::Object::Metadata::Column::Datetime> documentation for more information.

The L<DateTime> objects stored by this column type automatically have the day set to the first of the month.

=head1 OBJECT METHODS

=over 4

=item B<parse_value DB, VALUE>

Convert VALUE to the equivalent L<DateTime> object suitable for storage in a "datetime year to month" column.  VALUE maybe returned unmodified if it is a valid "datetime year to month" keyword or otherwise has special meaning to the underlying database.  DB is a L<Rose::DB> object that is used as part of the parsing process.  Both arguments are required.

=item B<type>

Returns "datetime year to month".
