The system timepoint and the local time derived from it both convert the time now to the timezone of New York. As usual, the local timepoint is applied to New York so that we now have the same value as the original time with the timezone removed. timeFromLoc is the initial local time 13:40:02 in Central Europe applied to the timezone of New York.
11.6.4 Dealing with Timezone Abbreviations
Because timezone abbreviations might refer to different timezones, you cannot define a unique timezone by its abbreviation. Instead, you have to map the abbreviation to one of multiple IANA timezone entries.
The following program demonstrates this for the timezone abbreviation CST: lib/chronocst.cpp
#include <iostream> #include <chrono>
using namespace std::literals;
int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
auto abbrev = argc > 1 ? argv[1] : "CST";
auto day = std::chrono::sys_days{2021y/1/1}; auto& db = std::chrono::get_tzdb();
//print time and name of all timezones with abbrev: std::cout << std::chrono::zoned_time{"UTC", day}
<<" maps to these '" << abbrev << "' entries:\n";
//iterate over all timezone entries:
for (const auto& z : db.zones) {
// and map to those using my passed (or default) abbreviation: if (z.get_info(day).abbrev == abbrev) {
std::chrono::zoned_time zt{&z, day};
std::cout << " " << zt << " " << z.name() << '\n';
}
} }
The program passing no command-line argument or "CST" may have the following output:
2021-01-01 00:00:00 UTC maps these ’CST’ entries: 2020-12-31 18:00:00 CST America/Bahia_Banderas 2020-12-31 18:00:00 CST America/Belize

2020-12-31 18:00:00 CST America/Mexico_City

2020-12-31 18:00:00 CST America/Winnipeg
2021-01-01 08:00:00 CST Asia/Macau
2021-01-01 08:00:00 CST Asia/Shanghai
2021-01-01 08:00:00 CST Asia/Taipei
2020-12-31 18:00:00 CST CST6CDT
Because CST may stand for Central Standard Time, China Standard Time, or Cuba Standard Time, you can see a 14 hour difference between most of the entries for America and China. In addition, Havana in Cuba has a 1 or 13 hour difference to those entries.
Note that the output is significantly smaller when we search for "CST" on a day in the summer, because the US entries and Cuba’s entry then switch to "CDT" (the corresponding daylight saving time). However, we still have some entries because, for example, China and Costa Rica do not have daylight saving time.
Note also that for CST, you might find no entry at all, because the timezone database is not available or uses something like GMT-6 instead of CST.
11.6.5 Custom Timezones
The chrono library allows you to use custom timezones. One common example is the need to have a timezone that has an offset from UTC that is not known until run time.
Here is an example that supplies a custom timezone OffsetZone that can hold a UTC offset with minutes precision:7
lib/offsetzone.hpp
#include <chrono> #include <iostream> #include <type_traits>
class OffsetZone
{

As you can see, all you have to define are conversions between the local time and the system time. You can use the timezone just like any other time_zone pointer:
lib/offsetzone.cpp
#include "offsetzone.hpp" #include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std::literals; // for h and min suffix
// timezone with 3:45 offset:
11.6 Timezones |
393 |
OffsetZone p3_45{3h + 45min}; |
|
|
||
// convert now to timezone with offset: |
|
|
||
auto now = std::chrono::system_clock::now(); |
|
|
||
std::chrono::zoned_time<decltype(now)::duration, OffsetZone*> zt{&p3_45, now}; |
|
|
||
std::cout << "UTC: |
" << zt.get_sys_time() << '\n'; |
|
|
|
std::cout << "+3:45: " << zt.get_local_time() << '\n'; |
|
|
||
std::cout << zt << '\n'; |
|
|
||
} |
|
|
|
|
The program might have the following output: |
