Although I can't shed any light on the Java/JavaDB problem, I can clarify a bit on DST and Brazil. Brazil decided by law 2008-09-08 that at 00:00 the third Sunday in October (which is 2008-10-18) is the change from DST to normal time and at 00:00 the third Sunday of February they will change back to DST. If your JDK is older than 2008-09-08, is is likely that it won't do this correct.
And, in 2042, the change will be on 2042-10-19 according to the new law. >>>>>>>>>>>> Mark Thornton wrote (2008-10-31 14:31:18): > Thomas Mueller wrote: >> What I plan to do in my database engine is to set the time to 12:00:00 >> (midday).
