This is wrong: the dst bit determines whether timestamps are considered to be daylight-saving time or not. The definition of the tm_isdst flag does not even mention standard time, and standard time is not an antonym to daylight-saving time.
True. Of course, since the EU doesn't have "Daylight Saving Time", the flag should be zero throughout the year in the EU. -- Clive D.W. Feather | If you lie to the compiler, Email: clive@davros.org | it will get its revenge. Web: http://www.davros.org | - Henry Spencer Mobile: +44 7973 377646
