[C++] Strptime ignores timezone information

    XMLWordPrintableJSON

Details

    Description

      ParseTimestampStrptime currently ignores the timezone information. So timestamps are read as if they were all in UTC. This can be unexpected. See discussion for details.
      It would be useful to either capture timezone information or convert timestamp to UTC when parsing it.
