They are supposed to have the timestamp in GMT so times across multipple timezones can be matched and reconciled.

Hi David.Partridge,
the problem is that to process the message we need the timestamp in IST,
but as per my problem i am getting the timestamp of message as GMT.
so there is difference of 5:30 Hrs.
now when i check the timestamp of message and compaire in my C++ code i am getting time difference is huge. so my further calculation fails.
please advise on this. |

There is a fairly obvious solution to that problem....

So what is preventing you to translate a GMT timestamp to an IST timestamp before comparing? or if you are using XMS/JMS (RFH header) adding an ISTTimestamp property value pair?

Just change the clock on your computer to GMT, then the comparisons will work.
However, please do remember not to come in to work at 04:00 - it took me a while to remember this. |

I dunno. It's not a bad way to avoid meetings... "Well, boss. I was at the office at 09:00, by the clock on my computer... and I left at 5:30..."

Then use gmtime() in your code rather than localtime().
There's no way that you can persuade MQ to use anything but UTC (aka GMT) for its timestamps.
