Re: timezone issue

2002-04-26 Thread Pierre Metrailler - shockfish / 


I thought that the timezone had nothing to do with Orion, too. But when I 
run the same code in a standalone application (i.e. not loading the class 
within Orion), I get a correct behaviour. And I'm using the same VM.

So, the standalone app yields a timezone w/ DST and a class within Orion 
yields a TZ wo/ DST.

Weird. Any idea ?

  Hi all,
 
  i've encountered a weird problem regarding timezones :
 
  My system timezone is set to Europe/Zurich, GMT+2, since we are in DST.
 
  Running a standalone java application and querying TimeZone.getDefault()
  returns the correct timezone, i.e. the one with the correct ID
  Europe/Zurich. The time is also correct.
 
  Querying TimeZone.getDefault() within Orion yields a timezone with ID
  Custom ! The offset is almost correct, excepted that it doesnt support
  the daylight saving. (GMT+1). (TimeZone.getDefault()).useDaylightTime()
  returns false, which is incorrect. Hence, the time is 1 hour late.
 
  In short, Orion does not properly build the right timezone from the system
  settings. Is there any way to address this problem ?
 
  Regards,
 
  Pierre
