You are correct. I seem to recall some java classes that handled

but I don't remember which ones they were.

I did find similar code but this looks to me like it will adjust the

time

based on the current value in QUTCOFFSET not the value it was at the

time

the unix timestamp was made. So if "today" is December 1 and the

difference is -05:00 but the unix stamp was made June 1 when the

offset

was only -04:00 the result will be off 1 hour won't it?
