[android-developers] Re: How can I get Date/Time info from API level 21, when Date(), Calendar(), and SimpleDateFormat() all require API level 23.)
Ok I actually figured out the answer, after TWO DAYS of experimenting and
getting ideas from Google searches. This is what works to get the date,
and put it in a string I can use:
In the XML file, I added this line to the TextClock definition:
android:format12Hour="dd "
of course, the format could be adjusted to any date/time info you want.
And in the java file, put the info into astring with these three lines, placed
appropriately:
TextClock txtClock;
txtClock = (TextClock) findViewById(R.id.txtClock);
volText.setText(txtClock.getText());
("volText" is a TextView elsewhere defined.)
I'm rather amazed this information was so hard to find and put together from
bits and pieces.
Such needs/solutions should be clearly explained somewhere.

RE: [android-developers] improving gps lock time
Using the AGPS (wifi rather than Sat) will speed up the process a lot but less accurate. In most cases if going off a home wifi it is pretty accurate for me. I also notice if the user is OUTSIDE and the phone is not in the pocket the speed for SAT is pretty good (expect on my 1st gen droid and some other offshoots of the Moto Droid) You could grab the AGPS location during a splash screen and query the accuracy. If it is over X amount ( X being what you determine for meters) then you can call up the SAT service for the user.

[android-developers] Reuse a control
Hi, What I would like to do is create a table layout one time that displays all the data I need and has the code that controls what happens when elements inside the table are clicked. I then want to add this control to each of my activities that need to show this table. As of right now I have all the XML and all the code duplicated on each page that the table needs to be on. Is there a way to do this in Android? If so is there also a way to create one for each of the different screen sizes(small,normal,large,x-large)? If anyone could send some links to examples or if it is simple just briefly explain the steps I need to take to do something like this I would greatly appreciate it! I know with .net I could create a custom User control and design the UI and add the code then I could just add a reference to the control on any webpage I wanted it on. This kept the code clean and short and if I needed to make a change I only had to do it in one place. That is the functionality I am looking for.

RE: [android-developers] Re: Nexus 7 has no menu button?
On my Acer Iconia Tab I get the soft menu represented by 3 horizontal lines on the toolbar at the bottom that contains the time and battery information. So it defently shows even if there isn't a hard button for the menu. I will say from experience it took me a while to figure out what button was the menu button on this thing as it was my first tablet and I was accustomed to seeing the word MENU as a hard button on the phone itself.

If you get stuck, like I have in the past many times, ask a well thought out and detailed question to this forum and people WILL help, I have learned a lot from this forum. If you have 0 programming experience you might be in for a rough ride and you will want to make sure any project you come up with is rather basic or you may not have time to finish it.

How can i switch the device from online - offline viceversa? You are right to be skeptical of the answers already give you. Clearly, adb is running. But what is not clear is whether or not adb has already got itself into a confused state. Although I have not had the exact same problem you report, I have been able to address similar problems by stopping and then restarting the adb server: that is what I do when I know the device is there, but adb devices does not report it. And although I cannot think of why it would make a difference, it seems to work more reliably if I do this as superuser (on my development system, which runs Linux) than if I do it as a regular user. Of course, that is not much help to you if you have to run a monkey over night. But it might at least help you narrow down what the problem is.

For my device to get detected by adb(server on my pc) adbd must be running. I went to adb shell I stopped adbd using the command stop adbd This stopped my adbd deamon on android device.because adbd is stopped mt adb(server on my pc will not detect my device) Now adbd is not running, I execute the adb devices command the output is, list of devices with empty list. The output --- List of devices attached --- because the device it self is not detected i cannot log in to adb shell again to start adbd adbd deamon on my device. so I shutdown and rebooted my android device, this made my adbd deamon to run again. Now when i executed adb devices on my PC The output --- List of devices attached id device --- By seeing this output it is very clear that adbd deamon is running on device, because if adbd is not running then the device will not be listed at all.

RE: [android-developers] Re: Service launch issues
You can't run an activity in the background. You can start the service, have it run its code and save that data. When my app first starts after boot it goes right into a service. When the service is done I create a notification icon. When the user clicks the notification it then loads the Activity. The activity then pulls in the info the service gathered from the SQLlite DB. If you are using eclipse, turn debug on in the mainifest, then flip over to debug view in eclipse and you should be able to see the logcat.

RE: [android-developers] Re: Service launch issues
If I were you assuming everything is working now and your app isn't crashing, I would put the code you want to run in the background into your service. If you need to save any data save it to a SQLlite database or xml file or whatever. I would then create a notification icon in the top menu of the phone. When the user clicks the icon have it launch your activity there. Inside your activity either in onResume or onStart have it pull the most recent data from you DB or xml file. Now when the user closes your app it will stil have the service running and the next time the enter the app your activity will refresh itself from the database or other file.

[android-developers] Automated Email Setup Via XML
Hi all, I have done a bit of digging around on Google to try to find a way to auto generate an XML file that contains user info that will automatically setup their android phone to be used for Exchange/POP3. I just finished doing this for the iphone and it was pretty easy. I just used the .mobileconfig file as a template and replaced the needed values. The user then goes to the url I provide, it downloads the file and boom, they are set up. I can't seem to find anything about doing this on Android. Does anyone know how or does anyone have a link to a tutorial or example that explains how this is done?

[android-developers] AlarmManager not waiting to fire off alarm...
Hi everyone, I have a calendar feature in my app that the user will be able to select a day and time and set an event. My problem is if the date is the current date the alarmIntent fires off immediately, not waiting for the proper time. I have been running tests with it and I set the time for the current day and a few minutes in the future via a datePicker and a TimePicker. Below is my code. //Set Alarm alarmEvent = (AlarmManager)getSystemService(Context.ALARM_SERVICE); String ALARM_ACTION; ALARM_ACTION = EventAlarmReceiver.ACTION_EVENT_ALARM; Intent intentToFire = new Intent(ALARM_ACTION); Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(); cal.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, dpEvent.getDayOfMonth()-1); cal.set(Calendar.MONTH, dpEvent.getMonth()); cal.set(Calendar.YEAR, dpEvent.getYear()); cal.set(Calendar.HOUR, tpAddEvent.getCurrentHour()); cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, tpAddEvent.getCurrentMinute()); alarmEventIntent = PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, intentToFire, 0); int alarmType = AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP; long timeToNotify = cal.getTimeInMillis(); alarmEvent.set(alarmType, timeToNotify, alarmEventIntent); Now when I check the timeToNotify variable and use a website to convert the Millisecond time to regular time, it shows me the correct time that I set on the phone. I am confused as to why it fires off immediately. If I set the event for a day in the future it does not go off immediately. I will have to wait until tomorrow to verify that it does go off.

I too would recommend getting the feel for java and at least understand the basics of classes and syntax. Then I would recommend getting a Book Beginning Android by Mark L.

Hopefully those who HAVE been saying that will read this. An RGB_565 takes 2 bytes per pixel (5+6+5=16bits=2bytes). Yes, but you lose color detail...again, that goes directly against the entire objective of my app. For the goofy stuff, sure, RGB_565 is fine. But for photographic filters (solid color, graduated, split-field, fog, diffusion, etc. And given their semi-transparency, RGB_565 definitely isn't a fit for those bitmaps (which don't need to be full-sized until saving the photos with filters, and then there's only one bitmap with all of the combined filters).). An ARGB_ takes 4 bytes per pixel. This means a 5MPixel image will take 5M*2 = 10MByte in RAM when using RGB_565 or 5M*4=20MByte in RAM when using ARGB_. Hmm, here's a thought...is there a bitmap type that I missed, that has alpha values like ARGB_, but only uses 16-bit color? Those definitely don't need 24-bit color---only the actual photo needs 24-bit. I have an image editor in the market and I managed to process full-sized images, reverting back to RGB_565 when necessary. My image editor only applies *linear *filters.

[android-developers] adb shell reboot hang, anyway to reboot?
Hi, I'm using Platform 4.0.3 (and the emulator coming with it). I tried to reboot to test BOOT_COMPLETED broadcast receiver so I need to reboot the emulator by command, NOT by clicking closing the emulator window. Is there anyway I can do it? I tried adb shell reboot but the emulator got hanged and never shutdown or receive input after the command.

[android-developers] clearAnimation() Causes onAnimationEnd to fire Twice?? Please Help
Hi,
I am trying to fade an ImageView Out, change the Image, then fade it back
in. Here is the code I am using:
private void fadeOut(){
AnimationSet myAnimationOut = new AnimationSet(true);
myAnimationOut.setAnimationListener(new AnimationListener(){
@Override
public void onAnimationEnd(Animation arg0) {
currWeatherAdRotator.clearAnimation();
if(currAd == 0){
currWeatherAdRotator.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.lbanner2);
currAd = 1;
}else if(currAd == 1){
currWeatherAdRotator.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.lbanner3);
currAd = 2;
}else if(currAd == 2){
currWeatherAdRotator.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.lbanner4);
currAd = 3;
}else if(currAd == 3){
currWeatherAdRotator.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.lbanner1);
currAd = 0;
}
fadeIn();
}
@Override
public void onAnimationRepeat(Animation arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
@Override
public void onAnimationStart(Animation arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
});
It seems however that currWeatherAdRotator.clearAnimation(); causes this bit
of code to run twice which messes up my sequence. If I remove
currWeatherAdRotator.clearAnimation(); It creates a black flicker at the end
of the animation.
I have the fadeout feature set up on a timer that goes off every 15 seconds.
I tried creating a new class that extends the ImageView (as I read was a
work around) but when I do this I can't run my timers because I get an error
when calling runOnUiThread.
Basically I want to rotate through these image every 15 seconds
continuously. Can someone please tell me how I can do this or what I am
doing wrong?
Thanks for your help!

[android-developers] Best way to handle incoming call and Network connectivity
Hi everyone, I am trying to figure out the best way to handle this situation. My app will need to use the internet to check for certain things. Sometimes it is a multi part request, meaning I call one web service to get certain data pass it back to the phone and if needed call another web service. My question is what would be a good way to handle stopping these requests if a phone call comes in and it kills my network connectivity so I can avoid a force close? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Good call I guess I could do all three at once then check to see which is
more accurate. startNetwork does get called which is why its so why it is so

and see what happens. Thanks for your time and input!

Hi,
Yes I understand what you are attempting, I was just suggesting doing all
three at the same time in parallel , that way you'd have a results in 30
seconds or less not have to wait for up 90 seconds.
And no I don't know why your network provider is no working, try adding some
debug statement to see if startNetwork() is being called ok. Other
suggestion is to use getLastKnownLocation(String).

RE: [android-developers] Re: Please Help with GPS Provider Switch
The timer is there to only allow it to check for 30 seconds.

[android-developers] dev software
Why is it that I've now gone through 14 g1 devices and have had to basically self-teach myself about changing proprietary software on a open source device, as long as you don't touch the recovery image or put a custom or cooked ROM on the device? You may in fact void your carriers warranty, but as far as HTC is concerned? Ur manufactures warranty is well in tact! I'm so sick of the grey area and b.s. people talk about, but as a developer? HTC has no right to tell customers that warranties are voided when a user flashes adp software. Instead they have shutdown their adp1 website and denied the device exists! It's a bootloader/sim/hardware/software unlocked device and i got a test phone that was a g1 at one point, and adp1 software at another. But when I pressed *#*#checkin#*#* it updated and I happened to be without data coverage I then asked for a replacement an got a stock device, only to get a carrier based ROM phone And since then registered as a developer and still cannot purchase a true developer device!!

RE: [android-developers] Re: How to detect nearby devices
I think you are going to have to go with Studio LFP. Checking an update say ever 5 or 10 minutes with GPS won't kill the battery that fast. Atleast with my application it doesn't just don't leave the GPS listener open. I set an alarm to go off every X minutes, first I try a course location (off 3g or wifi) if I can't get a location I try a fine location (off GPS) I have had the app run for 24 hours in the background checking every 5 minutes and didn't notice much of a difference from when it wasn't running. -Original Message- From: android-developers@googlegroups.com [mailto:android-developers@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of juankar Sent: Friday, October 07, 2011 3:00 PM To: Android Developers Subject: [android-developers] Re: How to detect nearby devices Wifi broadcast would be ideal, since it is less power-consuming than GPS, but is it possible to send a wifi broadcast from my application and other users with the same application can detect that broadcast and get the information from the emisor? If so, problem solved! If not, as Studio LFP said, my only idea in mind was updating (every 5 min, for example) with the latest location coordinates, upload to db, check for coords in range and then get the information from the users in range. However, that would obviously require having GPS turned on (or maybe not, if wifi or 3g can provide location coordinates) with the inherent battery draining :(. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

[android-developers] Arrays and android
Hi,
I've been trying to create my first android app. Number of functions
and the scripts complexity grow each time I try to finish it, but that
is the way to learn how to develop an android app.
I'm used to develop webpages using PHP and HTML. In my app I need an
array that looks something like this:
array('Age' - 1, 'Length' - 180). This is no problem with PHP,
but I haven't found out how this can be done in android. Is it
possible or am i constricted to using integers as indexes? And does
anyone have an idea to how this can be accomlished if strings can't be
used as indexes?

[android-developers] ANR when sending broadcast from service...Please help
Hi,
I am slightly confused as to why I am receiving an ANR when trying to send a
broadcast from a service. Here is what is happening. I have a service that
goes off every X minutes. If this service finds a valid reason to alert me
it sends a broadcast
if(validAlert == true){
sendBroadcast(Alertbroadcast);
Log.i(WeatherDog,Valid Alert. User Alerted.);
stopSelf();
}
Now it seems that everytime the sendBroadcast(Alertbroadcast) is hit I get
an android ANR that pops up with the following in logcat:
ANR in X.X
Reason:
Executing service x.x/ .MyService
Now if I hit wait on the error that comes up I find that my broadcast
receiver worked properly and display's the Icon and text it needs to
display.
Does anyone have any idea what could be the issue? I have other
broadcast/receiver I use elsewhere in the app that work without flaw.

[android-developers] Re: NFC P2P pattern: Receive first, via NPP, and respond after also via NPP
hi Cruz: I've successfully established a LLCP connection between a SCL3711 desktop reader (using nfcpy) and a Nexus S. I've also implemented NPP client and server support so I can send NDEF messages from the desktop and receive them on the Android, and vice-versa. Now i'm trying the same work like yours.I want to communication between my desktop reader and my Nexus S via the p2p.So could you help me some documents or some codes about the nfcpy. But I am struggling with the Android NFC API to accomplish something as simple as receiving a NPP message first, and then sending a response also via NPP. This is because the enableForegroundNdefPush() call has to be executed on the onResume() method and the NdefPushClient only sends the message if it is available as soon as the LLCP channel is established. In my use case the phone would be put next to my reader, which would trigger the establishment of a LLCP channel, and the reader would push an NDEF message. My application is launched, it is the only one that catches that specific intent, and produce a NDEF response based on the NDEF received and would push it to the reader via enableForegroundNdefPush(). But by now the LLCP channel is established, so the message does not get sent, and my application is processing the onNewIntent() method so I can't use enableForegroundNdefPush(). Am I doing something wrong? Surely this simple use case must be possible to implement. Thanks, André In your user case,Your Nexus S phone tap the desktop reader,the desktop reader send a NDEF message to the phone via the p2p,am i think right?In my activity,i have add a ndef filter,after i got the action of NfcAdapter.ACTION_NDEF_DISCOVERED,then Parcelable[] msgs = intent.getParcelableArrayExtra(NfcAdapter.EXTRA_NDEF_MESSAGES); My code like this ,it can be possible to implement?

[android-developers] Re: Nexus S,how to exchange ndef data via p2p.
Hi Michael ：
Thanks for your replys.
No. The NPP happens on a higher layer of abstraction than the NFC-DEP.
(The NFC-DEP is the NFC peer-to-peer data exchange protocol that knows
initiators and targets.) The NPP sits on top of the LLCP and the
LLCP sits on top of NFC-DEP. LLCP removes the restricition that the
initiator always starts a connection. In fact both, initiators and
targets, are equal on the LLCP layer. Both can listen on sockets and
create new sockets.
For NPP, the NPP server creates a listening LLCP socket and waits for
pushed NDEF messages. The NPP client is invoked by the foreground NDEF
push and sends NDEF messages to NPP servers.
From your replys,i has some doubt about NPP.You mean the NPP server
and
NPP client both on the same NEXUS S phone?The NPP server get the NPP
client
pushed NDEF messages and then NPP server send the messages to anthor
NEXUS S phone,
can i think so?
3. If in question tow i'm right,the target(another Nexus S
phone,or a nfc reader in my desktop) received the ndef data
mMessage,and send a response to initiator,how can i got the ndef
response.
The NPP is one-way. You can't send a response to a received NDEF
message.
4. In target terminal such as another Nexus s phone,how can i get
the p2p inittiator pushed ndef data.
Ndef myTag=Ndef.get(tag);
myTag.connect();

myTag.getNdefMessage();
}
On the receiving device, the NDEF data should be delivered in an
NDEF_DISCOVERED intent (or through the respective foreground
dispatch).
br,
Michael
Can i first delivered in one Nexus S phone NDEF_DISCOVERED intent,and
received the
NDEF messages.Then use the enableForegroundNdefPush to throw the
messages back.
Can i use this to alternate the questions how to get reponses above?

[android-developers] Nexus S,how to exchange ndef data via p2p.
Hi all:
I have some questions about android2.3 NFC of p2p.
1. i send the ndef data by the enableForegroundNdefPush(this,
mMessage)function in onResume,but how can i known that the mMessage is
send over,can i got the notification or Intent?
2. As i know,in p2p module there have two parts,the initiator
and the target.I think int the question one activity called
enableForegroundNdefPush(this, mMessage) , it's initiator ,am is think
right?
3. If in question tow i'm right,the target(another Nexus S
phone,or a nfc reader in my desktop) received the ndef data
mMessage,and send a response to initiator,how can i got the ndef
response.
4. In target terminal such as another Nexus s phone,how can i get
the p2p inittiator pushed ndef data.
Ndef myTag=Ndef.get(tag);
myTag.connect();
if (myTag.isConnected())
{
myTag.getNdefMessage();
}
Thanks for any hints.
Tommy

[android-developers] Reusable code
Hi, I'm new to android development and I've (not unexpectedly) run into a smal problem. The answer is out there, but it has not been clear to me. I'm making an application with four activities. Activity one spawns the other three into a tabview. Each of these three activites use two methods that are common among them. For instance a method that analyzes a string. So far I have copied this method-code into each activity, but there must be a way to make such a method accessible to all three activities within this application? Or do I need to diveintoandroidbooks to understand why this isn't possible? -- Tommy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

It may take seconds or more for the location to be determined, depending on the location provider being used and the user's circumstances (e.g., is the user getting a GPS signal?). You cannot simply call getLastKnownLocation() immediately after calling requestLocationUpdates() and expect to get any value. Your whole premise (press a button, get a location) will only work if either: 1. You have location updates started early (e.g., onResume()), so by the time the user presses the button, you probably have a fix, or 2.

Some may argue that the Desire lacks freshness since the Nexus One's already shown it all, but we'd disagree - at the end of the day it's mainly about the software and http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/09/google-starts-live-phone-support-to-nexu s-one-owners/ service, plus the Desire is available from more carriers to begin with (outside the US, anyway).

You still have 220mb avail for running apps. my original droid usually runs with 64mb free and I don't notice any issues.. If you are worried about the ram have you tried ATK(Advanced Task Killer)? I love it personally and it does a great job at keeping things running especially if you set up the auto-kill feature every hour or so.. Have you considered buying a used phone off ebay? I don't know how it works in india but that would be all I could suggest on possibly finding a good price on another phone.

I would love a Nexus phone but I am 13 years old and in india its a little expensive for me. My optimus works fine except it has started losing RAM very fast. When I switch it on there is 340 mb free but within 48 hours its down to 220mb. Any other phones you can suggest?

RE: [android-developers] Help in simple read/write applications.
I didn't think you could access app files between apps... Why not create a folder on the SD card and write the file there that way both apps have access? Maybe I am wrong about apps being able to access eachothers files other than with maybe custom providers? Maybe you could try using an Intent from App B to call an activity on App A that passes back the data you are looking for? -Original Message- From: android-developers@googlegroups.com [mailto:android-developers@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of HarryP Sent: Monday, April 25, 2011 9:14 PM To: Android Developers Subject: [android-developers] Help in simple read/write applications. I am writing two applications A and B. A writes a string into a file and B has to read from the same file. Both are signed by the same key and have shared UIDs. App A runs fine, by writing a specified string into the file(stored in internal memory). But while running app B on the emulator, I get an error box which says that the application stopped unexpectedly. Can anyone help me in this direction?

RE: [android-developers] Re: Timezone Question
Jake,
I have a vb project that auto detects Time Zone and Day Light Savings Time..
I found these JS files online and they seem to work great..
TimeZoneDetection.js :
//Provided by
http://www.michaelapproved.com/articles/timezone-detect-and-ignore-daylight-
saving-time-dst/
function TimezoneDetect() {
var dtDate = new Date('1/1/' + (new Date()).getUTCFullYear());
var intOffset = 1; //set initial offset high so it is adjusted on
the first attempt
var intMonth;
var intHoursUtc;
var intHours;
var intDaysMultiplyBy;
//go through each month to find the lowest offset to account for DST
for (intMonth = 0; intMonth 12; intMonth++) {
//go to the next month
dtDate.setUTCMonth(dtDate.getUTCMonth() + 1);
//To ignore daylight saving time look for the lowest offset.
//Since, during DST, the clock moves forward, it'll be a bigger
number.
if (intOffset (dtDate.getTimezoneOffset() * (-1))) {
intOffset = (dtDate.getTimezoneOffset() * (-1));
}
}
return intOffset;
}
DSTDetection.js:
// provided by
http://www.michaelapproved.com/articles/daylight-saving-time-dst-detect/
//Find start and end of DST
function DstDetect() {
var dtDstDetect = new Date();
var dtDstStart = '';
var dtDstEnd = '';
var dtDstStartHold = ''; //Temp date hold
var intYearDayCount = 732; //366 (include leap year) * 2 (for two years)
var intHourOfYear = 1;
var intDayOfYear;
var intOffset = TimezoneDetect(); //Custom function. Make sure you
include it.
//Start from a year ago to make sure we include any previously starting
DST
dtDstDetect = new Date()
dtDstDetect.setUTCFullYear(dtDstDetect.getUTCFullYear() - 1);
dtDstDetect.setUTCHours(0, 0, 0, 0);
//Going hour by hour through the year will detect DST with shorter code
but that could result in 8760
//FOR loops and several seconds of script execution time. Longer code
narrows this down a little.
//Go one day at a time and find out approx time of DST and if there even
is DST on this computer.
//Also need to make sure we catch the most current start and end cycle.
for (intDayOfYear = 1; intDayOfYear = intYearDayCount; intDayOfYear++)
{
dtDstDetect.setUTCDate(dtDstDetect.getUTCDate() + 1);
if ((dtDstDetect.getTimezoneOffset() * (-1)) != intOffset
dtDstStartHold == '') {
dtDstStartHold = new Date(dtDstDetect);
}
if ((dtDstDetect.getTimezoneOffset() * (-1)) == intOffset
dtDstStartHold != '') {
dtDstStart = new Date(dtDstStartHold);
dtDstEnd = new Date(dtDstDetect);
dtDstStartHold = '';
//DST is being used in this timezone. Narrow the time down to
the exact hour the change happens
//Remove 48 hours (a few extra to be on safe side) from the
start/end date and find the exact change point
//Go hour by hour until a change in the timezone offset is
detected.
dtDstStart.setUTCHours(dtDstStart.getUTCHours() - 48);
dtDstEnd.setUTCHours(dtDstEnd.getUTCHours() - 48);
//First find when DST starts
for (intHourOfYear = 1; intHourOfYear = 48; intHourOfYear++) {
dtDstStart.setUTCHours(dtDstStart.getUTCHours() + 1);
//If we found it then exit the loop. dtDstStart will have
the correct value left in it.
if ((dtDstStart.getTimezoneOffset() * (-1)) != intOffset) {
break;
}
}
//Now find out when DST ends
for (intHourOfYear = 1; intHourOfYear = 48; intHourOfYear++) {
dtDstEnd.setUTCHours(dtDstEnd.getUTCHours() + 1);
//If we found it then exit the loop. dtDstEnd will have the
correct value left in it.
if ((dtDstEnd.getTimezoneOffset() * (-1)) != (intOffset +
60)) {
break;
}
}
//Check if DST is currently on for this time frame. If it is
then return these values.
//If not then keep going. The function will either return the
last values collected
//or another value that is currently in effect
if ((new Date()).getTime() = dtDstStart.getTime() (new
Date()).getTime() = dtDstEnd.getTime()) {
return new Array(dtDstStart, dtDstEnd);
}
}
}
return new Array(dtDstStart, dtDstEnd);
}
Hopefully this will help your situation ?
