dst

I'm trying to print all the hours of the day using a for loop and incrementing a Date object. But I can't have "Sun Mar 25 02:00:00", I only have these: Sun Mar 25 01:00:00 CET 2012 Sun Mar 25 03:00:00 CEST 2012 Sun Mar 25 03:00:00 CEST 2012 Sun Mar 25 04:00:00 CEST 2012 Sun Mar 25 05:00:00 CEST 2012 I'm not interested in having the TimeZone. I think that the problem is due to the Daylight Saving, but I need the "Sun Mar 25 02:00:00". How can I do to create that date? You probably want a DateFormat object that is set up for UTC (which does not observe daylight savings), using a calendar set to

I've got this line of code which set daylight saving "On" what would be the proper way to set it to "off" // is daylight saving On? $rcmail_config['dst_active'] = (bool)date('I'); date('I') (that's a capital letter i) returns 1 when the current default time zone is in DST. If it's returning 1 instead of 0 and the timezone in question is not in DST , either the timezone you've picked is incorrect or the time zone data it uses is out of date. If you can, please try using a DateTime object with a DateTimeZone object that has been set to the proper time zone . A format('I') call on the resulting

Is there a easy way in Windows (using Delphi, not .NET) to convert UTC times to a local time, with daylight saving adjustments. Data goes back 12 years, so needs to take account of changes in DST start/end dates over that time. Funny, a very similar question appeared yesterday on LinkedIn. This is the answer I gave there: Time Zones are somewhat fluid, especially when Daylight Saving Time starts/finishes. This database ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tz_database ) defines the time zones, and it changes sometimes, so you need an update mechanism as well. There is a .NET implementation that you

I have an object Shift , with two fields: startDateTime and endDateTime as DateTime from Joda-Time. And my shift includes Daylight Saving UK change. It starts on 25/03/2017 13:00 and ends on 26/03/2017 02:00 (basically should end on 26/03/2017 01:00 , but this date does not exists, and endDate is shifted +1 hour). According to this site : When local standard time was about to reach Sunday, 26 March 2017, 01:00:00 clocks were turned forward 1 hour to Sunday, 26 March 2017, 02:00:00 local daylight time instead. Now if I want to track the number of hours worked by a employee new Duration

I have an application that uses a CLGeocoder to forwardGeocode a placemark from an address string. The CLPlacemark response contains a CLLocation which gives me GPS coordinates. The only way to create an NSTimeZone seems to be by using the correct Time Zone Name. It is important to point out that I am not using the current location of the device, so [NSTimeZone localTimeZone] will not work for me. Is there a way to get the timezone name for the CLLocation so that I can create an NSTimeZone correctly? NOTE: I have been using timeZoneForSecondsFromGMT but that never contains correct DST data, so

I'm building a web app that coaches people to rise earlier, it generates a rising schedule for the user over a seventy day period. They input their current rising time and their target rising time. The rising time then diminishes a set amount on a weekly basis until it reaches the target time. The user has to login to the website and 'check in' at their scheduled time. I'm at a bit of a loss as to how I generate this plan, taking into account the timezone and DST of the currently logged in user. My starting timezone is the 'neutral' UTC, here's the code for generating the plan, (quite verbose
