.. class:: wx.DateTime.TimeZone(object)

   **Possible constructors**::

       TimeZone(tz)
       
       TimeZone(offset=0)
       
   
   Class representing a time zone.



   .. method:: __init__(self, *args, **kw)



      |overload| Overloaded Implementations:

      :html:`<hr class="overloadsep" /><br />`

      
      **__init__** `(self, tz)`
      
      Constructor for a named time zone.                  
      
      
      :param `tz`: 
      :type `tz`: DateTime.TZ
      
      
      
      
      
      
      :html:`<hr class="overloadsep" /><br />`

      
      **__init__** `(self, offset=0)`
      
      Constructor for the given offset in seconds.                  
      
      
      :param `offset`: 
      :type `offset`: long
      
      
      
      
      
      
      :html:`<hr class="overloadsep" /><br />`






   .. method:: GetOffset(self)

      Return the offset of this time zone from ``UTC``, in seconds.                  

      :rtype: `long`








   .. method:: IsLocal(self)

      Return ``True`` if this is the local time zone.                  

      This method can be useful for distinguishing between ``UTC`` time zone and local time zone in Great Britain, which use the same offset as ``UTC`` (i.e. 0), but do use ``DST``. 

                

      :rtype: `bool`







      .. versionadded:: 4.1/wxWidgets-3.1.1  
     








   .. staticmethod:: Make(offset)

      Create a time zone with the given offset in seconds.                  


      :param `offset`: 
      :type `offset`: long




      :rtype: :ref:`wx.DateTime.TimeZone`
