Description

us_dst_rules public static functions

  1. static time_is_dst_result 
    local_is_dst(const date_type & d, const time_duration_type & td);
    Calculates if the given local time is dst or not.

    Determines if the time is really in DST or not. Also checks for invalid and ambiguous.

  2. static bool is_dst_boundary_day(date_type d);
  3. static date_type local_dst_start_day(year_type year);
  4. static date_type local_dst_end_day(year_type year);
  5. static time_duration_type dst_offset();
