[jira] Commented: (TOMAHAWK-811) Have the 'schedule' component deal with timezones

["Peter Mahoney (JIRA)" <de...@myfaces.apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TOMAHAWK-811?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12506140 ] 

Peter Mahoney commented on TOMAHAWK-811:
----------------------------------------

I would have thought it more appropriate to add a "timeZone" property to UIScheduleBase, rather than the model as it could be argued that timezone is more presentation than data model. It would also then be consistent with other timezone enabled components.

I think also that it would be good to add a getCalendarInstance() method to UIScheduleBase to avoid lots of GregorianCalendar.getInstance(getTimeZone()) calls.

I will try to get this done ASAP.

> Currently, the schedule component makes all calculations in the default timezone of the server. However, it is desirable to display schedules in alternate timezones.  For example, I have an app that runs in EST5EDT, but the users want all scheduling to occur in GMT.
