Hi,
This question concerns the issue of "overlapping timezones" like
Europe/Copenhagen.
I am parsing a sequence of timestamps in Europe/Copenhagen like:
2009-10-25 01:00
2009-10-25 02:00
2009-10-25 02:00
2009-10-25 03:00
2009-10-25 04:00
with a DateTimeFormatter created this way:
DateTimeFormat.forPattern("YYYY-MM-dd
HH:mm").withZone(DateTimeZone.forID("Europe/Copenhagen"));
The goal is to reconstruct the time in UTC.
When DST ends, the clock is set one hour back and we have to identical strings
of that point in time. Currently I detect this with a bunch of
getZone().getOffset() and some plus/minusHours() calls and but it seems I still
need to know which of the offsets the DateTimeFormatter.parseDateTime is going
to choose on this overlap. Is this defined anywhere?
Also, this seems quite messy. Is there any better way of going at it ?
Kind regards
Johannes
