  1. [OT] Timezones and Daylight savings.

    Jackson, DeJuan <djackson@cpsgroup.com> — 1999-03-31T00:02:21Z

    Could one of you kinds soul point me to the PostgreSQL code for determining
    Timezones and Daylight Savings.  If I can assess the OS's database that
    would be best.  Thanks

    Not sure what you mean here. As a guess, you should look at the
    utility "zdump", which will show you the transition times for ST/DST.
    You can set the TZ environment variable (or PGTZ envar when running
    Postgres) to test out different time zones, which is how I can test
    bug reports from other parts of the world.
