tzone.pl : A perl script that test the timezone information between the system time and ICU time.

Files:

tzdate.c Source file that compares the ICU time and system time.

Makefile.in Use to create the Makefile

tzone.pl Perl script that calls the tzdate program with the correct TZ and arguments.

To Build on Unixes

1. Build ICU. tzdate is not built automatically.

Specify an ICU install directory when running configure,

using the --prefix option. The steps to build ICU will look something

like this:

cd <icu directory>/source

runConfigureICU <platform-name> --prefix <icu install directory> [other options]

gmake all

2. Install ICU,

gmake install

To Run on Unixes

cd <icu directory>/source/test/compat

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<icu install directory>/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

gmake

tzone.pl

-This will use the current date.

-To use a different date, you must specify by:

tzone.pl year month day

-All three arguments are integer values

Note: The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems.

If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of

the variable that is used there. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name

for Linux and Solaris.
