CCTZ 2.0: cctz::lookup(..) vs cctz::format(..)

[Susanne Meyer]

Is it true that it is not recommended to use cctz::lookup(..) and always preferred to use cctz::format(..) instead?
But if I want to store the results (year, month, day...offset, isDST, abbr) in integer, double, bool and string variables. How can I do this using cctz::format(..)?

Is there a way to do the following example with cctz::format(..)? If so can you please give a short example?

int main()
{
cctz::time_zone lax;
load_time_zone("America/Los_Angeles", &lax);

const auto tp = cctz::convert(cctz::civil_second(2015, 9, 22, 9, 0, 0), lax);

cctz::time_zone nyc;
load_time_zone("America/New_York", &nyc);

const auto al = nyc.lookup(tp);

int year, month, day, hour, minute, second;
double UT_Offset;
bool isDST;
std::string abbr;

year      = al.cs.year();
month      = al.cs.month();
day          = al.cs.day();
hour      = al.cs.hour();
minute      = al.cs.minute();
second      = al.cs.second();
UT_Offset = al.offset / 3600.0;
isDST      = al.is_dst;
abbr      = al.abbr;
}

No, it is fine to use cctz::time_zone::lookup().
