Maybe I wasn't clear. When you pass a DateTime in a C# web service the
databinding layer always assumes that you've given it UTC time since
DateTime doesn't actually store the timezone. When you do
DateTime.Parse("01/05/2007
01:00:00"); it creates a DateTime with the timezone UTC+0 from the point of
view of C#'s web service layer. When you call dateTime.ToUniversalTime() the
call basically says "guess it wasn't UTC afterall, I'll assume the DateTime
was local now and create a UTC time from that". So it makes sence that
dateTime.ToUniversalTime() would in fact solve your problem.

hmmm...
I'm in central standard time.
I have the client and the server on the same computer. I expect the
DateTime to translate properly to a java.sql.Timestamp
From Csharp i do this
DateTime t = DateTime.Parse("01/05/2007 01:00:00");
and i expect that to be the same java.sql.Timestamp in the xfire web
services.
I noticed if i do this
DateTime
t = DateTime.Parse("01/09/2007 10:12:00 AM").ToUniversalTime();
It will work correctly.
Perhaps it something in my enviroment that is causing this not to work
with out the ToUniversalTime()
Is there something that i'm doing wrong?
Is anyone Sending DateTime object from csharp to a x-fire service?
Thanks :-)

The .NET DateTime documentation says [1]:
"Descriptions of time values in this type are often expressed using the
coordinated universal time (UTC) standard, which was previously known as
Greenwich mean time (GMT)."
Not including a timezone in the XML means that its in UMT+0. So I'm
guessing that you're in the UTC-5 timezone (aka EST) by the looks of it. If
so - all the conversions are correct as 2007-01-08 19:00:00 in UTC-5 is
the same thing as 01/09/2007 01:00:00 UTC+0.
