I have made a few changes that work for me at present to deal with the problem of Time Zones in xmlrpc. As I don't know this library inside out, you may consider the changes to be a little
patchy, but then this is the aPatchy project, so...

Attachment: ws-xmlrpc.diff
Description: Binary data


It works for my client side code. My guess is that this probably won't work for my server side code.
Here is how I use it:


     rpcClient.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone(
props.getProperty ("bloged.xmlrpc.service.timeZone.usedByServer","UTC"))
     );

Is there a way to set the time zones in which Date() objects get encoded or decoded in? In the MetaWeblog API the default time zone is meant to be UTC. But I don't see a way to specify
this.
