[jbpm-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBPM-1446) display non GMT+0 time zones

[Ronald van Kuijk (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBPM-1446?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12424097#action_12424097 ] 

Ronald van Kuijk commented on JBPM-1446:
----------------------------------------

using the FacesContext.getViewRoot().getLocale() is what seam does when using the s:convertDate instead of f:convertDate and no timezone is provided. 

And it is how IBM does it: 
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/iadthelp/v7r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.etools.jsf.doc/topics/rjsfconvertDateTimehx.html

and Oracle:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/htdocs/partners/addins/exchange/jsf/doc/tagdoc/core/convertDateTime.html

and many others to circumvent this glitch in the JSF spec.

It might be that the timezone that is passed on via the http request is just used in the locale and not one specific timezone IN the local. If it works for others, it should work for us as well.

> I spotted it today so I am creating the link to project JIRA. It is really inconvenient for user to have UTC time displayed in browser. See JBPM-987
