javascript - Getting the timezone a simplified ISO 8601 date string -


i have 2 date strings, each in different time zone. these strings in believe referred "simplified" iso 8601 format. 2 example dates listed below.

  • 2017-08-14t18:41:52.793z
  • 2017-08-14t23:41:52.000z

the first date in cdt while second date in utc. believe last 4 digits of each of these strings indicates time zone.

what's weird when set new date() each of these, i'm getting incorrect dates reported via console.log(). example:

const local_date = new date("2017-08-14t18:41:52.793z"); const remote_date = new date("2017-08-14t23:41:52.000z");  console.log("local_date = " + local_date); console.log("remote_date = " + remote_date);

outputs:

local_date = mon aug 14 2017 13:41:52 gmt-0500 (central daylight time)
remote_date = mon aug 14 2017 18:41:52 gmt-0500 (central daylight time)

it appears though first date getting 5 hours subtracted though source date provided in cdt; it's it's assuming both dates provided in utc.

what don't wrong here?

the last 4 digits 3 digit milliseconds followed timezone, z indicates utc time, , +hh:mm , -hh:mm indicates offset utc time.

so 793z 793 milliseconds in utc.

so both of examples in utc, why you're seeing output you're seeing.

const local_date = new date("2017-08-14t18:41:52.793-05:00");

would cdt format.

android - InAppBilling registering BroadcastReceiver in AndroidManifest -

i'm implementing inapp billing in android app. works well, however, i'm trying decouple broadcast receiver activity manifest. suggestion in android's trivialdrive sample: // important: dynamically register broadcast messages updated purchases. // register receiver here instead of <receiver> in manifest // because call getpurchases() @ startup, therefore can ignore // broadcasts sent while app isn't running. // note: registering listener in activity bad idea, done here // because sample. regardless, receiver must registered after // iabhelper setup, before first call getpurchases(). currently there's class extends broadcastreceiver : public class iabbroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { /** * intent action receiver should filter for. */ public static final string action = "com.android.vending.billing.purchases_updated"; private final iabbroadcastlistener mlistener; public iabbroadcastreceiver(iabbroadcastlistener listener) { m...

sql server - Why does Linq-to-SQL add unnecessary COUNT()? -

here tables: create table customer ( cid int primary key, name varchar(32) ) create table ord ( oid int primary key, cid int foreign key references customer, address varchar(20) ) here's linq-to-sql statement: var aaa = c in db.customer select new { c, o = c.ord.tolist() }; and here's inexplicable query generated linq-to-sql: select [t0].[cid] [cid], [t0].[name] [name], [t1].[oid] [oid], [t1].[cid] [cid2], [t1].[address] [address], (select count(*) [dbo].[ord] [t2] [t2].[cid] = [t0].[cid]) [value] [dbo].[customer] [t0] left outer join [dbo].[ord] [t1] on [t1].[cid] = [t0].[cid] order [t0].[cid], [t1].[oid] i want understand how rid of count(*) part. it's entirely uncalled for! linq needs count(*) in order determine number of entries returned o = c.ord.tolist() .
