I'm confused.  UTC does not have Daylight Savings Time.  Only local time zones have that.  ??

<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
My local machine is setin 'Eastern Standard Time' time zone. The value of serverTime DateTime variable is &nbsp;assigned as &quot;8/18/2014 4:10:30 PM&quot;. I have following code to convert 'Eastern Standard Time' to UTC time.<br />
<br />
TimeZone ServerZone = TimeZone.CurrentTimeZone;<br />
DateTime ServerUtcTime = ServerZone.ToUniversalTime<wbr />(serverTim<wbr />e);<br />
<br />
ServerUtcTime value is &quot;8/18/2014 8:10:30 PM&quot;. My queation is that why ServerUtcTime value is not &quot;8/18/2014 9:10:30 PM&quot;, as ''Eastern Standard Time&quot; time Offset hours to UTC is -5, which means ''Eastern Standard Time&quot; is 5 hours behind UTC. ServerUtcTime value should be &quot;8/18/2014 9:10:30 PM&quot;, right? As those C# TimeZone functions already considered the summer saving time.<br />
<br />
Or should I call some other function so that saving time will be counted in? I appreciate any help.

Time zone time

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
