I think the answer to your problem lies in NSCalendarDate. It has
functions that allow you to create a date with a timezone and in its
docs I found a function that gets the current system timezone -
[NSTimeZone systemTimeZone]... plus its really easy to get a new date
from an old date by adding hours.. For instance, using NSCalendarDate,
if the initial date is 11:59pm on December 31st, 1999, and you add 4000
seconds to the date, the resulting date will be in January of 2000.
Good luck.

Hello,
I tried to find an answer to my question in the web archives, but
didn't find any direct answer to my little problem.
Well, I need to create a NSDate object based on a string the user
types in, using
[NSDate dateWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat...
I have absolutely no problem working with it, but at the end, I must
specify the user's time zone in 1HHMM. That's where I'm stuck. How do
I get the timezone the user is in ?
As I need to do such a kind of timer, I'd need to know this in order
to not be "X" hours too late or to early in my computations.
If I enter +0200 for example it works great, but I think users in the
other time zones won't appreciate to be synchronized with my time zone
;-)
Thanks for any help,
Kevin
