Handle time zones with the time property

  • Last UpdatedJul 26, 2024

If you need to share time stamp values across different time zones (Platforms), use the Time data type in every time zone location. However, if you need to share it as string, remember that when converting the Time data type to a string (for example, in a script), it is automatically converted to local time, so you lose the ability to adjust it in a different time zone.

For example, to convert the Time property to a string GMT:

Dim localDateTime As System.DateTime;

localDateTime = System.DateTime.Parse( obj.attr.Time );

obj.udStringGMTfromLocalTime= localDateTime.ToUniversalTime().ToString();

To convert the string GMT to a string of local time:

Dim univDateTime As System.DateTime;

univDateTime = System.DateTime.Parse( obj.udStringGMTfromLocalTime );

Obj.udStringLocalTimeFromGMT = univDateTime.ToLocalTime().ToString();
