Explaining a bit more on the question I raised earlier. We have an issue in a custom component, The issue is being caused only in TimeZones which are effected by the Day Light Savings.
As we are aware, that day light savings changed from this Sun ,November 1st 2009, only than we are aware of this. Below is sample test written FYI, <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; layout="absolute" xmlns:local="*"> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ import mx.controls.Alert; private function test():void { var date1:Date = new Date(2009,10,1,0); var date2:Date = new Date(2009,10,1,1); Alert.show("Date 1 :: "+date1+" Date 2 :: "+date2); } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Button click="test()" label="Test"/> </mx:Application> When created a Date object for 00:00 and 01:00 hours on 1st Nov, these are the results appeared Date 1 :: Sun Nov 1 00:00:00 GMT-0400 2009 Date 2 :: Sun Nov 1 01:00:00 GMT-0500 2009 As observed, at Nov 1 00:00 the GMT is -0400 and at Nov 1 01:00 the GMT is -0500. This is causing a bit of unknown errors in the component. So the question, is there a way to Ignore the local timezone and just make use of Date object. PS: I tried converting the local time to UTC. This didn't work out.
