Hi everyone,
I was writing a unit test for some timezone conversions at work and I happened
upon this error in the derived timezone offset for Greece this year.
I upgraded the timezone data files and rebuilt the joda jar so I'm just looking
to see if anyone else experiences this same behavior (or not).
public static void main(String args[]) {
LocalDateTime local;
DateTime localWithTZ;
local = new LocalDateTime("2011-10-30T02:00:00.000");
System.out.println("Local time in Greece: "+local);
localWithTZ = local.toDateTime(DateTimeZone.forID("Europe/Athens"));
System.out.println("Local time in Greece (with TZ): "+localWithTZ);
System.out.println();
local = new LocalDateTime("2011-10-30T03:00:00.000");
System.out.println("Local time in Greece: "+local);
localWithTZ = local.toDateTime(DateTimeZone.forID("Europe/Athens"));
System.out.println("Local time in Greece (with TZ): "+localWithTZ);
System.out.println();
local = new LocalDateTime("2011-10-30T04:00:00.000");
System.out.println("Local time in Greece: "+local);
localWithTZ = local.toDateTime(DateTimeZone.forID("Europe/Athens"));
System.out.println("Local time in Greece (with TZ): "+localWithTZ);
System.out.println();
local = new LocalDateTime("2011-10-30T05:00:00.000");
System.out.println("Local time in Greece: "+local);
localWithTZ = local.toDateTime(DateTimeZone.forID("Europe/Athens"));
System.out.println("Local time in Greece (with TZ): "+localWithTZ);
}
Output:
Local time in Greece: 2011-10-30T02:00:00.000
Local time in Greece (with TZ): 2011-10-30T02:00:00.000+03:00
**************************************************************
Local time in Greece: 2011-10-30T03:00:00.000
Local time in Greece (with TZ): 2011-10-30T03:00:00.000+02:00
**************************************************************
Local time in Greece: 2011-10-30T04:00:00.000
Local time in Greece (with TZ): 2011-10-30T04:00:00.000+02:00
Local time in Greece: 2011-10-30T05:00:00.000
Local time in Greece (with TZ): 2011-10-30T05:00:00.000+02:00
This offset is incorrect. Greece is GMT+3 until 4AM on the 30th, at which time
it becomes GMT+2.
Thanks,
Chris
