Hi
*light bulb on* ! Perhaps we do not read the conent, but we assume it
is a symlink? I tried switching versions using a symlink and not by
copying again.... I need to test that too. Darn.
I confirm this.
It is not a matter if "localtime" is of version 1 or 2: if it is a raw
copy, it doesn't work, if it is a symlink, it works. We interpret the
"path" and not the contents (makes sens, i couldn't find provision in
NSTimeZone for interpreting the contents of a binary file).
It is perfectly licit however that localtime is a copy and not a simlink.
Perhaps david can shed more light on how to interpret the TZ on freebsd.
There exists tzname, but it is only an abbreviation. The tm structure
contains:
int tm_isdst; /* is summer time in effect? */
char *tm_zone; /* abbreviation of timezone name */
But I understand we want "Europe/Rome" and not "CE" + the ST bit.
Otherwise we can't distinguish Europe/Berlin from Europe/Rome... both
are CE.
/"Use of the external variable tzname is discouraged; the tm_zone entry
in the tm structure is preferred./" But that doesn't help us either.
