The documentation for the POSIXlt class states '"POSIXlt" objects will often have an attribute "tzone", a character vector of length 3 giving the time zone name from the TZ environment variable and the names of the base time zone and the alternate (daylight-saving) time zone. Sometimes this may just be of length one, giving the time zone

Yes, the potential issue I see is that make check fails when I explicitly set TZ. However, I set it to be the same as what the system reports when I login.

The return value of Sys.time() today with a timezone of US/Eastern is unchanged between 4.0.3-patched and devel, but on devel the following test fails all.equal(x, as.POSIXlt(x)) with x = Sys.time() This means that devel does not complete make tests (failure on tests/reg-tests-2.R) It is entirely possible that it is an error on my end, I use export TZ="US/Eastern" but I have been

Hello: What is the recommended method for retaining the tzone attributes when concatonating POSIXct objects? > (d1 <- ISOdate(1970,1,1)) # Sets the tzone attribute = GMT [1] "1970-01-01 12:00:00 GMT" > (d1.2 <- c(d1, d1)) # c(..) strips the tzone attribute, displays in the time zone of the operating system [1] "1970-01-01 04:00:00 PST" "1970-01-01

...modifying all.equal.POSIXt behaviour: - make check.tzone=FALSE the default: this is inconsistent with other arguments of all.equal methods, always defaulting to stricter checks - let all.equal.POSIXt generally ignore the tzone difference if tzone is unset for one of the objects (similar to check_tzones): I think this is a bad idea because tzone affects how POSIXt objects are printed, and under check.tzone=TRUE, two objects shouldn't be considered "nearly equal" if they print differently.

I stumbled upon a typo in a time zone name: Irtutsk should be Irkutsk. A patch is attached. I also checked that this is the only bug of its kind in this file, i.e., all the other Olson time zones occurring in the file can also be found in Unicode Common Locale Data Repository. - Mikko Korpela Index: src/extra/tzone/registryTZ.c ===================================================================

I'm reading in ~3 years worth of data that includes hourly timestamps. Presumably to avoid DST confusion, all the data is in PST time zone -- no discontinuities in the spring or fall. The data comes in a csv file, which I'm reading with myvariable <- read.csv("my_data_file.csv",header=FALSE,

Greetings - I'm battling POSIXct, as per the code below. My input is actually an XL file, but the weird results below correctly model what I am seeing in my program. Before I punt and use lubridate or timeDate, could anyone please help me understand why POSIXct forces my variable back to GMT? I suspect that I'm not properly coding the tzone value, but it does not throw an

R developers, The "tzone" attribute is stripped from a POSIXct object when the subscript command is called ("[.POISXct"). This results in dates being printed in the locale specific format after a subscript operation is applied to a POSIXct object which has cause several problems for me in the past. Here is an example of this problem under R 1.9.1: > x <-

I am finding that axis.POSIXct uses the local timezone for deciding where to put tic marks, even if the data being plotted are in another time zone. The solution is to use attr() to copy from the 'x' (provided as an argument) to the 'z' (used for the 'at' locations). I have pasted my proposed solution in section 1 below (as a diff). Then, in section 2, I'll put some

Folks, I'm having trouble with how datetime objects with time zones are set and plotted. This may be the result of my running R (2.4.0) on a Windoze XP box. Perhaps not. Here are two example problems I need advise on if you have time: 1) I collect data with dates (often as a fractional day of year) in UTC. Using strptime to create date time objects appears to force the data into

Thank you for the report. In R-devel, all.equal.POSIXt() by default reports inconsistent time zones. Previously, > x <- Sys.time() > all.equal(x, as.POSIXlt(x, tz = "EST5EDT")) would return TRUE. To ignore the time zone attributes in R-devel, the argument 'check.tzone = FALSE' needs to be used. That said, I can reproduce the 'make check' failure in R-devel on

Hi all; I've already send a similar e-mail to the list and Prof. Brian Ripley answered me but my doubts remain unresolved. Thanks for the clarification, but perhaps I wasn't clear enough in posting my questions. I've got a postgres database which I read into R. The first column is Timestamp with timezone, and my data are already in UTC format. An 'printed' extract of R

So let me try to raise this issue once more, and perhaps be more clear about what I think the issue is.. In my opinion there is now a bug in make check in R-development (tested today with r79361). As I see it, I specify a reasonable TZ environment variable and this leads to make check emitting an error. Best, Kasper On Fri, Oct 2, 2020 at 11:28 AM Kasper Daniel Hansen < kasperdanielhansen

I have a problem with results from difftime being 1 hour different than expected. 2 examples are given below: datetime <- matrix(data=rbind(c("2012-03-31 21:00:00", "2012-04-01 00:00:00", "2012-04-01 03:00:00", "2012-04-01 06:00:00"), c("2012-10-06 21:00:00", "2012-10-07 00:00:00", "2012-10-07 03:00:00",

This has to do with your own timezone. If I run that code on my computer, both formats are correct. If I do this after Sys.setenv(TZ = "UTC") Then: > cbind(format(dlt), format(dct)) [,1] [,2] [1,] "2016-12-06 21:45:41" "2016-12-06 20:45:41" [2,] "2016-12-06 21:45:42" "2016-12-06 20:45:42" The reason for that, is that

Good Afternoon R Community, I am working on plotting behavior codes over short durations of time (a few seconds at a time over 1-2 hrs). I am utilizing as.POSIXct to store the time. I wanted to make a quasi time line using these time. I utilized the segments function to represent these times. However the segments rounds off at the ends and does not have the crisp look I need for my purposes.

David, I didn't have time to dig through the code completely, but those other two are being set automatically in the C code as far as I can tell, in particular in the code // localtime may change tzname. if (isgmt) { PROTECT(tzone = mkString(tz)); } else { PROTECT(tzone = allocVector(STRSXP, 3)); SET_STRING_ELT(tzone, 0, mkChar(tz)); SET_STRING_ELT(tzone, 1,
