# Prep for future calls to valid_timezone().
#
# This should set $UTZ to three spaces, `GMT', `Unrecognized/Unrecognized', or
# possibly the empty string, depending on what system we are running on.  With
# any luck, this will catch any other existing variations as well.  The way it
# is used later does have the disadvantage of rejecting at least the
# `Europe/London' timezone for half the year when $UTZ gets set to `GMT', like
# happens on NetBSD, but, since I haven't come up with any better ideas and
# since rejecting a timezone just causes a few tests to be skipped, this will
# have to do for now.
#
# UTZ stands for Unrecognized Time Zone.
UTZ=`TZ=Unrecognized/Unrecognized date +%Z`

# The following function will return true if $1 is a valid timezone.  It will
# return false and set $skipreason, otherwise.
#
# Clobbers $NTZ & $skipreason.
#
# SUS2 says `date +%Z' will return `no characters' if `no timezone is
# determinable'.  It is, unfortunately, not very specific about what
# `determinable' means.  On GNU/Linux, `date +%Z' returns $TZ when $TZ is not
# recognized.  NetBSD 1.6.1 "determines" that an unrecognizable value in $TZ
# really means `GMT'.  On Cray, the standard is ignored and `date +%Z' returns
# three spaces when $TZ is not recognized.  We test for all three cases, plus
# the empty string for good measure, though I know of no set of conditions
# which will actually cause `date +%Z' to return the empty string SUS2
# specifies.
#
# Due to the current nature of this test, this will not work for the
# three-letter zone codes on some systems.  e.g.:
#
#	test `TZ=EST date +%Z` = "EST"
#
# should, quite correctly, evaluate to true on most systems, but:
#
#	TZ=Asia/Calcutta date +%Z
#
# would return `IST' on GNU/Linux, and hopefully any system which understands
# the `Asia/Calcutta' timezone, and `   ' on Cray.  Similarly:
#
#	TZ=Doesnt_Exist/Doesnt_Exist date +%Z
#
# returns `Doesnt_Exist/Doesnt_Exist' on GNU/Linux and `   ' on Cray.
#
# Unfortunately, the %z date format string (-HHMM format time zone) supported
# by the GNU `date' command is not part of any standard I know of and,
# therefore, is probably not portable.
#

	NTZ=`TZ=$1 date +%Z`
	if test "$NTZ" = "$UTZ" || test "$NTZ" = "$1"; then

### Tests

# Why are these dates tested?
#
# February 29, 2003
#   Is not a leap year - should be invalid.
#
# 2004-12-40
#   Make sure get_date does not "roll" date forward to January 9th.  Some
#   versions have been known to do this.
#
# Dec-5-1972
#   This is my birthday.  :)
#
# 3/29/1974
# 1996/05/12 13:57:45
#   Because.
#
# 12-05-12
#   This will be my 40th birthday.  Ouch.  :)
#
# 05/12/96
#   Because.

#   Playing near the UNIX Epoch boundry condition to make sure date rolling
#   is also disabled there.
#
# 1996-12-12 1 month
#   Test a relative date.



# The following tests are currently being skipped for being unportable:
#
# Tue Jan 19 03:14:07 2038 +0000
#   For machines with 31-bit time_t, any date past this date will be an
#   invalid date. So, any test date with a value greater than this
#   time is not portable.
#
# Feb. 29, 2096 4 years
#   4 years from this date is _not_ a leap year, so Feb. 29th does not exist.
#
# Feb. 29, 2096 8 years
#   8 years from this date is a leap year, so Feb. 29th does exist,
#   but on many hosts with 32-bit time_t types time, this test will
#   fail. So, this is not a portable test.

# Many of the following cases were also submitted by Ian Abbott, but the same
# errors are not exhibited.  The original problem had a similar root, but
# managed to produce errors with GMT, which is considered a "Universal Zone".
# This was fixed.
#
# The deeper problem has to do with "local zone" processing in getdate.y
# that causes local daylight zones to be excluded when local standard time is
# in effect and vice versa.  This used to cause trouble with GMT in Britian
# when British Summer Time was in effect, but this was overridden for the
# "Universal Timezones" (GMT, UTC, & UT), that might double as a local zone in
# some locales.  We still see in these tests the local daylight/standard zone
# exclusion in EST/EDT.  According to Paul Eggert in a message to
# bug-gnulib@gnu.org on 2005-04-12, this is considered a bug but may not be
# fixed soon due to its complexity.
