[Openroad-users] Timezone Question

[Robert Allely]

Hi Darren
 
You may want to look at having OpenROAD deamons running with specific
timezones, and sending database events to the appropriate daemon which
has the timezone that you want to lookup.  The daemon could then reply
with another database event with the answer.

Hi Gareth

 

Unfortunately the need is a bit more complex than that.  We have
external clocking devices that are connected via TCP/IP and may exist in
any Timezone, and we need to be able to send the local time to these
devices. I will allocate a Timezone type variable to the definition of
the clocks. My theory is that we know that the TIMEZONE the clock
resides in is 'AUSTRALIA-SOUTH' or 'AUSTRALIA-WEST' or 'NZ', etc. And I
need to be able to send a string parameter to the clocks that contains
the correct local time.  I don't want to rely on just adding or
deducting a pre-specified number of minutes from the server based time,
as we need to take into account Daylight Savings changes.  So I would
like to have some method to get me the current time for a specified
Timezone.

 

Thanks

 

Darren

Just take half an hour off?

 

ACDT = date('now') - '30 mins';

	Hi All

	 

	I need to be able to determine the current time in a different
Timezone.  For example:  If my Ingres Timezone parameter is set to
'AUSTRALIA-VICTORIA', how can I determine the current time in
'AUSTRALIA-SOUTH'?

	 

	(Using OR2006 with Ingres2006)

	 

	 

	Thanks

	 

	Darren
