[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (TEIID-3920) Remove databasetimezone property from odata4 translator

[Steven Hawkins (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-3920?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Steven Hawkins updated TEIID-3920:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
The databasetimezone execution property is not used - and not needed since all date/time information needs to be in gmt or with an explicit timezone.

This is a candidate for 8.12.5 as well.

After looking at the source though, I'm not so sure about this.  EdmDate and EdmTimeOfDay both assume GMT for incoming string values - however when the convert from Java objects to string they use the local/default Calendar.  This seems like it could be a bug since it is asymmetric behavior.  I can't find any spec reference on this either.
