std::chrono::locate_zone - cppreference.com (original) (raw)

Convenience function for locating a time zone in the time zone database. Equivalent to std::chrono::get_tzdb().locate_zone(tz_name).

[edit] Parameters

tz_name - a time zone name to locate

[edit] Exceptions

std::runtime_error if the specified time zone cannot be found, or if this is the first reference to the time zone database and the time zone database cannot be initialized.

[edit] Notes

A call to this function that is the first reference to the time zone database will cause it to be initialized.

[edit] Example

#include #include   int main() { try { for (const auto zone : {"Atlantic/Bermuda", "Alcatraz"}) std::cout << std::chrono::locate_zone(zone)->name() << '\n'; } catch(const std::runtime_error& ex) { std::cout << ex.what() << '\n'; } }

Possible output:

Atlantic/Bermuda std::chrono::tzdb: cannot locate zone: Alcatraz
