Class std.datetime.timezone.UTC

A TimeZone which represents UTC.

class UTC
  : TimeZone ;

Properties

NameTypeDescription
hasDST[get] boolAlways returns false.
dstName[get] stringTypically, the abbreviation (generally 3 or 4 letters) for the time zone when DST is in effect (e.g. PDT). It is not necessarily unique.
name[get] stringThe name of the time zone. Exactly how the time zone name is formatted depends on the derived class. In the case of PosixTimeZone, it's the TZ Database name, whereas with WindowsTimeZone, it's the name that Windows chose to give the registry key for that time zone (typically the name that they give stdTime if the OS is in English). For other time zone types, what it is depends on how they're implemented.
stdName[get] stringTypically, the abbreviation (generally 3 or 4 letters) for the time zone when DST is not in effect (e.g. PST). It is not necessarily unique.
