I think you should have your constructor
match the superclass, call super passing all the parameters, and then re-adjust
your value based on the timezone under the super call.

any place for me to set the time zone?
Thank you Matt!
That means whenever I new a Date instance, I need
to get the GMT?
Is it possible to override the constructor of the
Date.as, so that I
can construct each date instance to a specific
timezone?
I have written a class that extends the Date:
class GMTHKDate extends Date{
function GMTHKDate(timeValue:Number)
{
if (timeValue == undefined ||
isNaN(timeValue))
timeValue =
super().getTime();
super(timeValue +
getTimeZoneOffSet());
}
public static function getTimeZoneOffSet()
: Number {
var tzOffSet = new
Date().getTimezoneOffset();
tzOffSet *= 60 * 1000;
tzOffSet += 8 * 60 * 60 * 1000;
// adjust to Hong Kong timezone
return tzOffSet;
}
}
It works, however Flex allows only one constructor.
How can I also
constructs something like:
function
Date(year:Number,month:Number,date:Number,hour:Number,min:Number,sec:Number,ms:Number);
?
Thank you very much!
Regards,
Ernest
