Deduction guides

 

Defined in header <chrono>
template<     class Duration,     class TimeZonePtr = const std::chrono::time_zone* > class zoned_time;		(since C++20)
using zoned_seconds = std::chrono::zoned_time<std::chrono::seconds>;		(since C++20)

The class zoned_time represents a logical pairing of a time zone and a std::chrono::time_point whose resolution is Duration.

An invariant of zoned_time is that it always refers to a valid time zone and represents an existing and unambiguous time point in that time zone. Consistent with this invariant, zoned_time has no move constructor or move assignment operator; attempts to move a zoned_time will perform a copy.

The program is ill-formed if Duration is not a specialization of std::chrono::duration.

The template parameter TimeZonePtr allows users to supply their own time zone pointer types and further customize the behavior of zoned_time via std::chrono::zoned_traits. Custom time zone types need not support all the operations supported by std::chrono::time_zone, only those used by the functions actually called on the zoned_time.

TimeZonePtr must be MoveConstructible. Move-only TimeZonePtrs are allowed but difficult to use, as the zoned_time will be immovable and it is not possible to access the stored TimeZonePtr.

Member types

Member type	Definition
duration	std::common_type_t<Duration, std::chrono::seconds>

Member functions

(constructor)	constructs a zoned_time (public member function)
operator=	assigns value to a zoned_time (public member function)
get_time_zone	obtains a copy of the time zone pointer (public member function)
operator local_timeget_local_time	obtains the stored time point as a local_time (public member function)
operator sys_timeget_sys_time	obtains the stored time point as a sys_time (public member function)
get_info	obtain information about the time zone at the stored time point (public member function)

Non-member functions

operator== (C++20)	compares two zoned_time values (function template)
operator<< (C++20)	outputs a zoned_time into a stream (function template)

Helper classes

std::formatter<std::chrono::zoned_time> (C++20)	formatting support for zoned_time (class template specialization)
std::hash<std::chrono::zoned_time> (C++26)	hash support for std::chrono::zoned_time (class template specialization)

Helper specializations

template< class Duration > constexpr bool enable_nonlocking_formatter_optimization   <chrono::zoned_time<Duration, const chrono::time_zone*>> = true;		(since C++23)

This specialization of std::enable_nonlocking_formatter_optimization enables efficient implementation of std::print and std::println for printing a chrono::zoned_time object.

            const std::chrono::zoned_time zt{location, std::chrono::system_clock::now()};
            std::cout << std::setw(width) << location << " - Zoned Time: " << zt << '\n';
