Description

Add methods to PersistenceManager and PersistenceManagerFactory to allow a user to get the current time and date from the server. Allow the PersistenceManagerFactory to be configured statically with TimeZone ID in case the information is not available from the server itself.

This will add a method to PersistenceManager java.util.Date getServerDate() and to PersistenceManagerFactory get/setServerTimeZoneID. The PersistenceManagerFactory methods are needed in case the information needed to construct the Date are not available via the connection to the server itself.
