Hi -
I am trying work on a simple solution that will return
complete hours of the day including timezone offset.
Following is the code that is being used to spit
out each hour: -
DateTimeFormatter fmt =
DateTimeFormat.forPattern("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZZ");
//Setting 2011 Fall DST day.
DateTime st = new DateTime(2011, 11, 6, 0, 0,
DateTimeZone.forID("America/Chicago"));
DateTime et = new DateTime(2011, 11, 6, 0, 0,
DateTimeZone.forID("America/Chicago"));
//======================================
for (int i = 0; i <= 24; i++) {
try {
if (i > 0) {
st = st.minuteOfDay().addToCopy(60);
}
et = et.minuteOfDay().addToCopy(60);
System.out.println("START TIME = { "
+ fmt.print(st)
+ " } END TIME = {"
+ fmt.print(et) + " }");
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
//=====================================
Above logic spit out the all the correct
(as per our expectation) hours and time offsets
for all days of the year but the fall DST. For the
fall DST of 2011, which in Nov 06, we are expecting the
following intervals(hour start -- hour end): -
1st interval
----------------
START TIME = { 2011-11-06T00:00:00-05:00 }
END TIME = {2011-11-06T01:00:00-05:00 }
2nd interval
----------------
START TIME = { 2011-11-06T01:00:00-05:00 }
END TIME = {2011-11-06T02:00:00-05:00 }
3rd interval
----------------
START TIME = { 2011-11-06T02:00:00-05:00 }
END TIME = {2011-11-06T02:00:00-06:00 }
4th interval
----------------
START TIME = { 2011-11-06T02:00:00-06:00 }
END TIME = {2011-11-06T03:00:00-06:00 }
But the above code is returning the following result: -
1st interval
----------------
START TIME = { 2011-11-06T00:00:00-05:00 }
END TIME = {2011-11-06T01:00:00-05:00 }
2nd interval
----------------
START TIME = { 2011-11-06T01:00:00-05:00 }
END TIME = {2011-11-06T01:00:00-06:00 }
3rd interval
----------------
START TIME = { 2011-11-06T01:00:00-06:00 }
END TIME = {2011-11-06T02:00:00-06:00 }
4th interval
----------------
START TIME = { 2011-11-06T02:00:00-06:00 }
END TIME = {2011-11-06T03:00:00-06:00 }
Our problem is the second and third interval, as per
our expectation, we are expecting the second interval
as 01:00:00-05:00 to 02:00:00-5:00 and the third
interval as 02:00:00-5:00 to 02:00:00-6:00, instead of
the data being returned by the current code. I am
currently using 2.0RC1 implementation and I did
try going as far back as 1.5 with slight modifications
in the API the fall DST result is still the same.
Can someone help me on this? I did read somewhere
that in certain previous version the result would have
been as we are expecting.Can someone point to that
version or provide details to get what we are expecting?
Best Regards-
Dev
