NSDate offset woes


  • Subject: NSDate offset woes
  • From: Greg Hoover <email@hidden>
  • Date: Sat, 20 Oct 2007 18:08:43 -0700

I'm importing a set of dates from a file that I create using dateWithString:. I've encountered some odd behavior in that some of the dates are created with an offset of -0700 for PDT and a few have the offset -0800 (also PDT apparently). The date "value" is the same -- when I print them out, the dates that show -0800 are adjusted by an hour (the local time zone is -0700 btw). I can't seem to create all the dates with the same -0700 offset. This issue doesn't really matter until the dates need to be displayed, but NSDateFormatter tends to respect the offset associated with the date, which is odd because my understanding is that the date has no associated time zone.

I'm obviously missing something or this is a bug.

Greg
