Summary | 0008768: webservice call which returns timezone information | ||||
Description | Obviously we need a new webservice call which returns timezone information from the server on which a Mantis installation is running: If for instance I'm adding a new version via mc_project_version_add() and I want to set date & time then it's important to know that currently local time is used. If I wanted to convert the date & time values to the daylight time of the timezone the server lifes in then I need to know that timezone. | ||||
Additional Information | The call could return the result of date_default_timezone_get(). We could add the new call to 1.1.1 without breaking compatibility (no signature of an existing call changes). | ||||
Tags | No tags attached. | ||||
