Hello,

I would like to convert a unix timestamp to TDateTime taking into account timezone and daylight savings. For example, timestamp: 1308666350 should be converted to: 2011/06/21 16:25:50, assuming GMT+1 timezone in the winter (GMT+2 in the summer). I would like this conversion to work both during the summer and the winter, meaning that if I try to convert the above timezone during the winter time, it should work as well. So, I would like for the conversion to work similarly to: date -d @1308666350 +%Y/%m/%d\ %H:%M:%S . Is this something possible?

Thank you,

Stathis
