Hi there,
I'm using Zend_Date to handle datetimes on my application.
What I do is set UTC as the default timezone, so I use a universal time zone
for all my internal and persistence operations, and the I use our local
timezone (Europe/Madrid) just to show dates on the web frontend.
My question is if is there a better solution to show dates than cloning the
Zend_Date object so the original date's timezone is not changed.
What I mean is, if something like this:
class Event {
/**
* @var Zend_Date
*/
protected $_endTime;
public function getLocalEndTime()
{
$endTimeClone = clone($this->_endTime);
$endTimeClone->setTimezone('Europe/Madrid');
return $endTimeClone->toString('es_ES');
}
}
could be replaced by something like this: (obviously toString method does not
work on this way)
class Event {
/**
* @var Zend_Date
*/
protected $_endTime;
public function getLocalEndTime()
{
return $this->_endTime->toString('es_ES', 'Europe/Madrid');
}
}
