Class DateTimeZoneProviders

Static access to date/time zone providers built into Noda Time and for global configuration where this is unavoidable. All properties are thread-safe, and the providers returned by the read-only properties cache their results.

Syntax

public static class DateTimeZoneProviders

Properties

Bcl

Gets a time zone provider which uses a BclDateTimeZoneSource.

Since 1.0.x

Availability net6.0, net8.0, netstandard2.0

Declaration

public static IDateTimeZoneProvider Bcl { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IDateTimeZoneProvider	A time zone provider which uses a BclDateTimeZoneSource.

Remarks

See note on BclDateTimeZone for details of some incompatibilities with the BCL.

In Noda Time 1.x and 2.x, this property is only available on the .NET Framework builds of Noda Time, and not the PCL (Noda Time 1.x) or .NET Standard 1.3 (Noda Time 2.x) builds.

Serialization

Gets the IDateTimeZoneProvider to use to interpret a time zone ID read as part of XML serialization. This property is obsolete as of version 3.0; the functionality still exists in DateTimeZoneProvider, which this property delegates to. (The behavior has not changed; this is purely an exercise in moving/renaming.)

Since 1.2.x

Availability net6.0, net8.0, netstandard2.0

Declaration

[Obsolete("This property exists primarily for binary backward compatibility. Please use NodaTime.Xml.XmlSerializationSettings.DateTimeZoneProvider instead.")]
public static IDateTimeZoneProvider Serialization { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IDateTimeZoneProvider

Tzdb

Gets a time zone provider which uses a TzdbDateTimeZoneSource. The underlying source is Default, which is initialized from resources within the NodaTime assembly.

Since 1.0.x

Availability net6.0, net8.0, netstandard2.0

Declaration

public static IDateTimeZoneProvider Tzdb { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
IDateTimeZoneProvider	A time zone provider using a TzdbDateTimeZoneSource.
