Category: win32 Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Bernhard (bernhard_bender) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: wrong timezone info returned by GetTimeZoneInformation() Initial Comment: In my setting: Windows XP (German), up-to-date patches applied (including the lated August 2007 timezone database patch) Python 2.4 pywin 2.10 Timezone Europe/Berlin (+0100) with DST enabled win32api.GetTimeZoneInformation() returns seemingly wrong information for the date DST ends. This is shown by the little scripe I have attached, which prints: >>> Daylight time begins : Last Sunday in March Daylight time ends : Last Thursday in October <<< Since I am pretty sure that our DST does not end on a Thursday, I suspect an error in either the implementation of GetTimeZoneInformation() or in the WinXP TZ database. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=551954&aid=1784777&group_id=78018 |
