Thanks Norbert, my issue is that I don't see how to do that :
As per the doc I can defined the time_zone to be used for a specific block
(rdb:1) Time.use_zone("Europe/London"){ Time.now.in_time_zone }
Mon, 03 Dec 2012 14:33:24 GMT +00:00
(rdb:1) Time.use_zone("Europe/Paris"){ Time.now.in_time_zone }
Mon, 03 Dec 2012 15:33:41 CET +01:00
This is fine with Time.now , but not with a Time.new ...
(rdb:1) Time.use_zone("Europe/London"){ Time.new(2012, 12, 3, 9, 30, 0) }
2012-12-03 09:30:00 +0100
(rdb:1) Time.use_zone("Europe/Paris"){ Time.new(2012, 12, 3, 9, 30, 0) }
2012-12-03 09:30:00 +0100
I cannot believe that there is no way to do the same for Time.new .. ?
