Download all timezones

[ablyth]

Can anyone think of a quick and easy way to get all the UTC Offset's of configured timezones? Or is it possible somewhere in my preferences settings that i have missed to display the timezone with +-(x) hours?

Any methods quicker than Googling them all gratefully received!

You're looking for the ones which java provides I take it?  Here's a simple custom object:

String allOffsets = "";
TimeZone.getAvailableIDs().each()
{
  TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getTimeZone(it);
  allOffsets += tz.ID + " = " + tz.getOffset(System.currentTimeMillis()) + "\n";
}
allOffsets;

Notice that you need to provide the date so that the offset can be calculated properly.

Is that the sort of thing you're looking for?

(some results of the scripto)

Etc/GMT+11 = -39600000

Pacific/Midway = -39600000

Pacific/Niue = -39600000

Pacific/Pago_Pago = -39600000

Pacific/Samoa = -39600000

US/Samoa = -39600000
