Subject: Newbie Q: How to program in UTC (time/calendar) ?

Message-ID: <89277c47-788d-441c-95b2-f47e1b70a532@j39g2000yqn.googlegroups.com> (raw)

What is the "natural"/best way to make an Ada program
treat time/calendar data in UTC ?  The quetion is about
treating old measurements/data tagged with UTC time.

I use

  Offset : Constant Time_Offset := UTC_Time_Offset;

and include "Time_Zone=>Offset" in calendar routines
(for example in the functions Time_Of, Split, Value
within  the packages Ada.Calendar.Formatting and
Ada.Calendar.Time_Zones).

I find this a but "artificial". How should one do it?
