[Freeswitch-users] Timezone with time conditions

Tue Sep 25 03:13:22 MSD 2012

I try both "tz-offset" (per tag) and "tod_tz_offset" and it doesn't seem 
to have any effect can someone please confirm that I'm doing the right 
thing and is someone else using it successfully?
Here is my test dialplan:
   <section name="dialplan" description="Regex/XML Dialplan">
     <context name="public">
       <extension name="test">
         <condition break="never">
           <action application="set" data="ringback=$${us-ring}"/>
           <action application="set" data="timezone=America/New_York" 
inline="true"/>
           <action application="set" data="tod_tz_offset=-4" inline="true"/>
           <action application="log" data="CRIT 
${strftime_tz(America/New_York %b %d %Y %H:%M:%S)}"/>
         </condition>
         <condition tz-offset="-4" mon="9" mday="24" 
minute-of-day="900-1200"  break="on-true">
           <action application="transfer" data="30 XML default" />
         </condition>
       </extension>
     </context>
   </section>
I see the log logging the correct time, however the second condition is 
never getting matched based on the tod_tz_offset variable or tz-offset 
tag. if anyone can point me in the right direction I will update the 
documentation.
