Outside of Xcode, when I run the program (a "Command line tool") directly from the bash shell, it prints out in UTC "unixy" format:
2019-08-31 01:00:01 +0000 ...but at the same time it gets logged in the Console log as: Fri Aug 30 18:00:01 2019 Same result if I run it as a system daemon. So as you suggest it seems there could be some sort of environment sensitivity going on. If only I knew what env var to set in the shell... UTC really isn't what I'm looking for. -Carl > On Aug 30, 2019, at 5:20 PM, Uli Kusterer <witness.of.teacht...@gmx.net> > wrote: > > Wildly guessing here, but could be that NSLog uses different implementations > depending on how it was launched.
