XPath/XQuery adjust-date-to-timezone function

Summary

Adjusts an xs:date value to a specific timezone, or to no timezone at all; the result is the date in the target timezone that contains the starting instant of the supplied date.

Signatures

fn:adjust-date-to-timezone(
$arg as xs:date?
) as xs:date?
fn:adjust-date-to-timezone(
$arg as xs:date?,
$timezone as xs:dayTimeDuration?
) as xs:date?

Properties

The one-argument form of this function is deterministic, context-dependent, and focus-independent. It depends on implicit-timezone.
The two-argument form of this function is deterministic, context-independent, and focus-independent.

Rules

If $timezone is not specified, then the effective value of $timezone is the value of the implicit timezone in the dynamic context.

If $arg is the empty sequence, then the function returns the empty sequence.

If $arg does not have a timezone component and $timezone is the empty sequence, then the result is the value of $arg.

If $arg does not have a timezone component and $timezone is not the empty sequence, then the result is $arg with $timezone as the timezone component.

If $arg has a timezone component and $timezone is the empty sequence, then the result is the local value of $arg without its timezone component.

If $arg has a timezone component and $timezone is not the empty sequence, then the function returns the value of the expression:

  • Let $dt be the value of fn:dateTime($arg, xs:time('00:00:00')).

  • Let $adt be the value of fn:adjust-dateTime-to-timezone($dt, $timezone)

  • The function returns the value of xs:date($adt)

Examples

Assume the dynamic context provides an implicit timezone of -05:00 (-PT5H0M).

let $tz-10 := xs:dayTimeDuration("-PT10H")

The expression fn:adjust-date-to-timezone(xs:date("2002-03-07")) returns xs:date("2002-03-07-05:00").

The expression fn:adjust-date-to-timezone(xs:date("2002-03-07-07:00")) returns xs:date("2002-03-07-05:00").

The expression fn:adjust-date-to-timezone(xs:date("2002-03-07"), $tz-10) returns xs:date("2002-03-07-10:00").

The expression fn:adjust-date-to-timezone(xs:date("2002-03-07-07:00"), $tz-10) returns xs:date("2002-03-06-10:00").

The expression fn:adjust-date-to-timezone(xs:date("2002-03-07"), ()) returns xs:date("2002-03-07").

The expression fn:adjust-date-to-timezone(xs:date("2002-03-07-07:00"), ()) returns xs:date("2002-03-07").

Error Conditions

A dynamic error is raised if $timezone is less than -PT14H or greater than PT14H or is not an integral number of minutes.
