I have an app that has many references to a comparison function in my DateUtilities to see if two dates are on the same day. Unfortunately, the logical approach is used a couple hundred times in my application. Now I see that in unusual circumstances a user may want to count an event that starts at midnight of some day as an event that happens on the physical previous day. So, for instance, they may have games at 9PM, 10PM, 11PM, and 12PM. But my baked-in logic would always say that 12PM is the next day.
The only approach I can think of is to temporarily fool the program into thinking the UTC offset is different by 1 hour then return it to the usual offset once evaluation of same day events is completed. Any suggestions on how to temporarily change the perceived offset? I know that ActionScript has a timeZoneOffset but that's read only. My attempts so far have failed. -- Sent from: http://apache-flex-users.2333346.n4.nabble.com/
