I was surprised to find that Pharo kept setting my local offset, even though I explicitly set it to UTC and then made sure Locale was disabled. Then I saw: Locale class>>#startUp: resuming ... DateAndTime localTimeZone: self localTimeZone. (self activated) ifTrue: [ First it does some work, and then it checks to see whether it's activated! I propose to move the first line into the subsequent block, or maybe better yet - move that behavior into DateAndTime itself. Thoughts? ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Deactivated-Locale-Still-Sets-TimeZone-tp4914754.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
