NMSTimestamp returning LocalTime instead of UTC
-----------------------------------------------
Key: AMQ-971
URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-971
Project: ActiveMQ
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: NMS (C# client)
Affects Versions: incubation
Environment: Windows
Reporter: Rob Lugt
Priority: Minor
The NMSTimestamp property has been changed from long to DateTime - which is a
good thing. However, the DateTime is currently being adjusted to localtime
before being returned to the client - which is probably not ideal. The
DateTime struct does not contain timezone information, therefore the programmer
has to make some assumption about what timezone the time is expressed in. A
UTC time is more in-keeping with the JMS specification - which specifies that
Timestamp is a normal Java time i.e. expressed in GMT. This article from
Microsoft also suggests using UTC as a common time where possible:
