Actually the problem is that the CurrentTimeTicks and UtcOffsetTicks is returned in nanoseconds or increment of 100 nanoseconds so I can't use, new Date(CurrentTimeTicks);. It returns as "not a date" Here's how the XML looks:
<TimeZoneInfo> <Name>Dateline Standard Time</Name> <DaylightName>Dateline Daylight Time</DaylightName> <StandardName>Dateline Standard Time</StandardName> <DisplayName>(GMT-12:00) International Date Line West</DisplayName> <UtcOffsetTicks>-432000000000</UtcOffsetTicks> <CurrentTimeTicks>633516008019218750</CurrentTimeTicks> <IsInDaylightSaving>false</IsInDaylightSaving> </TimeZoneInfo> --- In [email protected], "Josh McDonald" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > All typed off the top of my head in gmail and untested: > > //Get a date for the UTC time numbers will match, but will be in local time > var foreignTime:Date = new Date(CurrentTimeTicks); > > //Strip our current (local) offset (check my -/+ math!) > foreignTime.time -= foreignTime.getTimeZoneOffset() * 1000 * 60; > > //Convert so the foreign value appears when getting the local value (again, > check +/-) > foreignTime.time += UtcOffsetTicks * 1000 * 60; > > if (IsDaylightSaving) > foreignTime.time += 3600000; > > //Now if you fetch hours, minutes, seconds from foreignTime they should > return the numbers you'd like. > > I've probably got a couple of +/- switched around, and if the ticks are > seconds instead of ms knock off 3 zeros from some of those fields, but that > should give you a starting point :) > > When you get the correct answer, please post it to the list in a follow-up > to this thread. > > -Josh > > On Mon, Jul 14, 2008 at 11:34 PM, Mark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I asked this question going into a weekend so I wanted to re-ask it > > today and see if anyone has any ideas on how to work this? > > > > Thank You, > > Mark > > > > > > > > > > > -- > "Therefore, send not to know For whom the bell tolls.
