Windows API: Getting time zone information with GetTimeZoneInformation
2003-05-22 -- Derek Noffke

Newsgroups: comp.lang.clarion


Look at http://msdn.microsoft.com for the full description.

I used the following prototype and structure

  module('windows')
    GetTimeZoneInformation(ulong lpTimeZoneInformation), ulong, raw, pascal,
name('GetTimeZoneInformation')
  .

lpTimeZoneInformation   group,pre(TZI)
Bias                              LONG
StandardName            string(32)
StandardDate              ulong
StandardBias              LONG
DaylightName              string(32)
DaylightDate                ulong
DaylightBias                 long
                                        .
  code
  if ~WC_GetTimeZoneInformation(address(lpTimeZoneInformation)) then
return(0) .
