Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for the getTimezoneStdName([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err, data){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'data' is the value returned by the method.

The callback for the setTimezoneStdName([callback]) method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

The customary name for the standard time zone. This could be used for displaying dates, and there is no restriction to the format. For instance, Eastern Standard Time may be represented as "EST", "Eastern Standard Time (US & Canada)", or any other arbitrary representation.

The following example shows the CalTimezone set to Eastern time.

  CalDAV.Timezone.TimezoneId      = "US-Eastern";
  CalDAV.Timezone.URL             = "http://zones.example.com/tz/America-New_York.ics"

  CalDAV.Timezone.StdName         = "Eastern Standard Time (US & Canada)";
  CalDAV.Timezone.StdStart        = "20071104T020000";
  CalDAV.Timezone.StdOffsetFrom   = "-400";
  CalDAV.Timezone.StdOffsetTo     = "-500";
  CalDAV.Timezone.StdRule         = "FREQ=YEARLY;BYDAY=1SU;BYMONTH=11";

  CalDAV.TimeZone.DSTName         = "Eastern Daylight Time (US & Canada)";
  CalDAV.TimeZone.DSTStart        = "20070311T020000";  
  CalDAV.TimeZone.DSTOffsetFrom   = "-500";
  CalDAV.TimeZone.DSTOffsetTo     = "-400";
  CalDAV.TimeZone.DSTRule         = "FREQ=YEARLY;BYDAY=2SU;BYMONTH=3";
