Re: SystemPreferences app and NSLocale

[Stefan Bidigaray]

Honestly, I'm not sure how the old APIs works, and which aplicativa mande use of them.

Since a while back, GNUstep has been using ICU for locale, and time and number formatting. So what you found in that file would be immaterial, at least to this conversation.

If I understand your original question correctly, you are having issues seeing the locale. The time zone settings, however, do not set the locale. I'm not sure what which default does.

0 GMT0

 

Does the zero in the first position mean that Europe/Brussels has the same timezone as GMT0?

I interpret it the same way as you. It means it would be wrong.
But Lisbon has 23, which looks also wrong? it would mean "-1"

Does this list miss Iceland? it remains 0 all the time having no DST.
