Member Function Documentation

add()

void KTimezones::add

(

KTimezone *

zone

)

Add user-defined timezone to database.

Definition at line 355 of file ktimezones.cpp.

allZones()

const KTimezones::ZoneMap KTimezones::allZones

(

)

Return timezone database.

Returns

known timezones.

Definition at line 360 of file ktimezones.cpp.

local()

const KTimezone * KTimezones::local

(

)

Returns the local timezone.

The idea of this routine is to provide a robust lookup of the local timezone.

The problem is that on Unix systems, there are a variety of mechanisms for setting this information, and no real way of getting it. For example, if you set your timezone to "Europe/London", then the tzname[] maintained by tzset() typically returns { "GMT", "BST" }. The point of this routine is to actually return "Europe/London" (or rather, the corresponding KTimezone).

Returns

local timezone. If necessary, we will use a series of heuristics which end by returning UTC. We will never return NULL.

Definition at line 480 of file ktimezones.cpp.

zone()

const KTimezone * KTimezones::zone

(

const TQString &

name

)

Returns the given timezone.

Parameters

name	Name of timezone. Empty is equivalent to UTC.

Returns

named timezone, NULL on error.
