error message 115 Ambiguous local time ... assuming daylight

clint2 · Post by **clint2** » Mon Nov 30, 2009 6:41 pm

I get these whenever using timport on records with dates that are inside the daylight savings time switch:

115 2009-11-30 14:00:29 ./csv2Texis:76: Ambiguous local time `2009-11-01 01:16:24': during daylight/standard time change; assuming daylight in the function parsetime

Whats the easiest way to suppress just these errors?

Add a "putmsg" function to your vortex script to filter them out. See http://www.thunderstone.com/site/vortex ... rrors.html

I was afriad that would be the answer. I did that, but now I have to manually print out the ones that I don't want to suppress.

Oh well its not that hard. Thanks for the answer!

Here's a reference putmsg function which outputs the same as the built-in one. This can be used as the starting point for customizing the handler.

<a name=putmsg>
<local saveret=$ret savenext=$next saveloop=$loop open close>
<vxinfo htmlmode>
<if $ret eq 0><$open=""><$close=""><else><$open=""></if>
<loop $errnum $errscript $errline $errmsg $errfunc $errvfunc>
<fmt "%s%03d " $open $errnum>$errscript:$errline: $errmsg
<if $errfunc ne "">
<send " ">in the function $errfunc
</if>
<fmt "%s\n" $close>
</loop>
<$ret=$saveret><$next=$savenext><$loop=$saveloop>
</a>
