Re: [flexcoders] Zoneinfo database to use for AIR applications.
George See that? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_zoneinfo_timezones You can create a db in sqlite and store all the info. Than you can use it easy.

Re: [flexcoders] Zoneinfo database to use for AIR applications.
Thanks Igor. I know that. That list is just the zone.tab file. What I need is to get a complete zoneinfo database (and can be updated to new data later when zoneinfo database update maybe every year) and convert into something that to be used directly in AIR applications. Especially I need not only zone information but also others such as daylight saving when application changing timezone runtime. I actually create an open source project for this myself (silently) as I couldn't find anything really useful last weekend. http://code.google.com/p/as3-zoneinfo-lib/ George Igor Costa wrote: George See that? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_zoneinfo_timezones http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_zoneinfo_timezones You can create a db in sqlite and store all the info.

Re: [flexcoders] Zoneinfo database to use for AIR applications.
George I don't know if you know the Joda, I've portted to actionscript 3.0 and in it there's a very powerfull date/time api for java developers. I don't know if I could to opensource the portation for now because there's a lot of thing to test. But the kind of zoneinfo db is hard to keep in auto update pilot, you have to write a server-side way to collect theses data and get to AIR/Flex project.

Re: [flexcoders] Zoneinfo database to use for AIR applications.
Igor, I had a look on that. But as Java JRE already included zoneinfo database support itself, I wonder if it helpful for me because what I'm doing is a standalone AIR application, without any server side and I need includes accurate zoneinfo data to support timezones runtime. Comparing to JRE, I think AIR runtime do not have robust zoneinfo support(might internal have but I'm not sure). It's not necessary to keep auto update the database with my AIR application, I can include that updates in application updates online somewhere. The same like any unix system they have a still zoneinfo database, only update when they update system themselves.
