The following sample code shows how you can create a new time zone and add it to the system:

 

[C#]

 

using CMS.SiteProvider;

 

...

 

        // Create new object

        TimeZoneInfo tzi = new TimeZoneInfo();

 

        // Set properties

        tzi.TimeZoneName = "TestTimeZone";

        tzi.TimeZoneDisplayName = "Test time zone";

        tzi.TimeZoneGMT = 2;

        tzi.TimeZoneDaylight = true;

        tzi.TimeZoneRuleStartRule = "MAR|SUN|1|LAST|3|0|1";

        tzi.TimeZoneRuleEndRule = "OCT|SUN|1|LAST|3|0|0";

        tzi.TimeZoneRuleStartIn = TimeZoneInfoProvider.CreateRuleDateTime(tzi.TimeZoneRuleStartRule);

        tzi.TimeZoneRuleEndIn = TimeZoneInfoProvider.CreateRuleDateTime(tzi.TimeZoneRuleEndRule);

 

        // Save to database

        TimeZoneInfoProvider.SetTimeZoneInfo(tzi);

 

The following sample code shows how you can modify the Display name of an existing time zone:

 

[C#]

 

using CMS.SiteProvider;

 

...

 

        // Get time zone object

        TimeZoneInfo tzi = TimeZoneInfoProvider.GetTimeZoneInfo("TestTimeZone");

 

        // If time zone exists

        if (tzi != null)

        {

            // Update property

            tzi.TimeZoneDisplayName += " updated";

 

            // Save to database

            TimeZoneInfoProvider.SetTimeZoneInfo(tzi);

 

        }

 

The following sample code shows how you can delete an existing time zone:

 

[C#]

 

using CMS.SiteProvider;

 

...

 

        // Get time zone object

        TimeZoneInfo tzi = TimeZoneInfoProvider.GetTimeZoneInfo("TestTimeZone");

 

        // If time zone exists

        if (tzi != null)

        {

            // Delete from database

            TimeZoneInfoProvider.DeleteTimeZoneInfo(tzi);

        }
