Re: CFDateFormatter + time zone = failure or crash

Note that you're not assigning 'date' any value in the test program. It needs to be 'date = CFDateFormatterCreateDateFromString(...etc...);' in the middle there.

You're call to CFDateFormatterCreateStringWithAbsoluteTime() though, which is crashing, doesn't have anything to do with 'date' or the previous few lines of code. (Assuming this was the actual test program.) For me, after I make the correct above in the first paragraph, I get no crash. But I'm on ICU 3.0 on Tiger. Perhaps ICU fixed a bug.

I'm trying to use CFDateFormatter to format/parse a date time string with a timezone in it. (Ultimately, I'd like to parse a string with -0500 for the time zone.)

I've started with the examples on the ICU page. When I include the timezone, the date doesn't parse. If I try to format the current date using that formatter, it crashes in the ICU library.

Am I doing something wrong? Or is it time to visit the bug reported?

Thanks,
Jim
