Negative time zone leads to incorrect start date of a recurring event?

[Bogdan Lavryshchuk]

Hello.

If I set my computer to use negative time zone then recurring event starts one day earlier. Could you help me with that? Thanks.

Steps:

1. Set machine running ewjs to non-negative timezone (I used +1);

2. Create recurring event with example app;

3. Open Outlook web app and check that recurrence starts from December 31;

4. Remove event;

5. Set machine running ewjs to negative timezone (I used -1 and -8);

6. Create recurring event with same example app;

7. Open Outlook web app and check the result: recurrence starts from December 30;

Expected: recurrence still starts from December 31;

   

Machine: 10.10.1, Exchange: 2010.

      EWSConnectorFactory factory = new EWSConnectorFactory();

        EWSConnectorInterface connector = null;
        connector = factory.createEWSConnector(_exchangeHost,
                                               _userName,
                                               _password,
                                               _prefix, _useSSL, _accountName);
       
        SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat(
                "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
        Date startDate = null;
        Date endDate = null;
        startDate = dateFormat.parse("2014-12-31 23:00:00");
        endDate = dateFormat.parse("2014-12-31 23:30:00");
        EWSEventDTO event = new EWSEventDTO();
        event.setSubject("test event2");
        event.setStartDate(startDate);
        event.setEndDate(endDate);
       
        String xmlRecurrenceRule = "<t:Recurrence><t:DailyRecurrence><t:Interval>1</t:Interval>"
                + "</t:DailyRecurrence><t:NumberedRecurrence>"
                + "<t:StartDate>2014-12-31Z</t:StartDate>"
                + "<t:NumberOfOccurrences>5</t:NumberOfOccurrences>"
                + "</t:NumberedRecurrence></t:Recurrence>";
        EWSRecurrence ewsRecurrence = new EWSRecurrence( xmlRecurrenceRule );
        event.setRecurrenceRule( ewsRecurrence );
        event.setRecurrent( true );


    String[] result = null;
 try {
 result = connector.createEvent(event);
 System.out.println("id: " + result[0]);
        System.out.println("changeKey: " + result[1]);
 } catch (Exception e) {
 e.printStackTrace();
 }

Hi,
Try to update the event to add timezone.
Please see the related timezone examples.
