I compiled and installed ooRexx 4.1.1 on a 'plug' computer with an ARM
processor to run an application that records data values based on a GMT
timestamp. The function Time("ticks") returns a value relative to local;
time (Eastern Time). As of this morning after the switch to standard,
everything works as expected:
say time("offset") -18000000000
say date() 3 Nov 2013
say time() 07:12:26
However, yesterday on Daylight Savings time, I was getting the same
offset:
say time("offset") -18000000000
say date() 2 Nov 2013
say time() 23:00:11
At 02:00 this morning, Time("ticks") was adjusted back by the equivalent
of one hour but Time("offset") was still -5 hours from GMT.
I was able to recreate the problem on both Debian 6.0 and Ubuntu 9.04. I
do not see this problem with ooRexx 4.1.1 running no Windows7.
Unfortunately, my Intel Linux system failed recently so I cannot verify if
the problem is Linux or ARM-architecture specific.
Has anyone else seen this problem?
Thanks, Norbert------------------------------------------------------------------------------
