Daylight Saving Time Impact

2006-11-15 Thread Ranendra N Ghoshal
Hello:

As you are aware Beginning in 2007, DST will start the second Sunday of
March and end on the first Sunday of November. Does TomCat v3 or v5.5
impacted by Daylight Savings Time change ?

If so, then are there fixpacks / patches available.

Regards
Rupam

Daylight Saving Time Impact

2007-02-08 Thread Leung Joe-W30220
Hi all,
 
Is there going to be an impact on Tomcat due to Daylight Saving Time
Change in US?  Currently, I am using Tomcat 5.5.17.   I am wondering if
I need to upgrade to the Tomcat 6.
 
Thank you in advance.
 
Joe

Haven't seen any code in 5.5 that "knows" when the changeover is; that
information is provided by the JRE.  Sun has announced which levels of
its JVM support the new changeover, although that may need further
updating when other countries match what the US is doing.  Can't speak
about other JVMs.

Tomcat (not TomCat) version 3?  "Surely, you can't be serious."

Tomcat doesn't track DST begin and end.  That's taken care of in the JRE 
or JVM.  Take a look at you Java vendor's website (Sun or IBM) for support.

This is not something that affects Tomcat. Your Java version and
operating system version will need to support the daylight savings time
changes (which were not only in the US, by the way).

Does anyone know which versions of Java have been appropriately patched?

well I know that no one/nobody asked me what my opinion is as to whether 
or not  you should try to obtain tomcat 6 but I would say to you "yes" 
regardless of whether or not there is any looming big time change or not!

For production use, you might want to wait for it to be judged stable -
so far all the TC6 builds have only made it to beta.

This might be of interest in figuring out what jre/jdk you need to
handle the Daylight Savings Time change:

http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Intl/tzupdatertool.html

Tomcat itself relies on the OS and JRE/JDK for time zone handling and as
such doesn't have to be updated.
