Local fix

Problem summary


    

  • DatatypeConverter.printDateTime  uses
DataTyepeConverterImpl.formatTimeZone which is manually
calculating the timeZone offset based on
TimeZone.useDaylightTime() value. However if the ZoneInfo rule
is undefined for the timezone the output of
TimeZone.useDaylightTime() returns incorrect value.

    



Problem conclusion


    

  • DataTyepeConverterImpl.formatTimeZone has been modified to use
TimeZone.getOffset() which calculates the offset based on the
TimeZone.
