  How can we use the IClockProvider Interface/Clock class. As On the create event we are using the below code.

  var history = input.MapTo<TrIncentiveActivityHistory>(); await _incentiveActivityHistoryRepository.InsertAsync(history);

  The above code is saving the system's datetime for CreationTime. But I would like to change this in a specific time zone.

  Thanks

  Hi,

  If your entity implements IHasCreationTime, ABP automatically sets CreationTime to Clock.Now. See SetCreationAuditProperties method here <a class="postlink" href="https://github.com/aspnetboilerplate/aspnetboilerplate/blob/a7cc09f5b1541b8543b91c6e74134a06d09c6ea7/src/Abp.EntityFramework/EntityFramework/AbpDbContext.cs">https://github.com/aspnetboilerplate/as ... Context.cs</a>.

  If you look at the Clock class in ABP(<a class="postlink" href="https://github.com/aspnetboilerplate/aspnetboilerplate/blob/0762989fcd0493e8dc55a50a7443e891d1bffe1f/src/Abp/Timing/Clock.cs">https://github.com/aspnetboilerplate/as ... g/Clock.cs</a>), you will see

  public static DateTime Now
  {
      get { return Provider.Now; }
  }
  

  So, if you change Clock.Provider with your implementation, you can achieve what you want.

  I hope this helps.

  Thanks for your reply, I have a confusion how can we implement this.

  Clock.cs is placed under namespace Abp.Timing and this name space is placed under Abp.dll. In the project Abp.dll is already added then how can we change this.

  Thanks

  Hi,

  Just set Clock.Provider to your implementation in Global.asax or your web module's initialize method.

  Clock.Provider = new LocalClockProvider();

  If using asp.net zero template, by default, the server is running on UTC.

  Global.asax.cs is set with Clock.Provider = ClockProvders.Utc

  To use local time, the line of code to be removed according to the code comments.

  This seems to be different from the online documentation for ASP.NET ZERO, stating "... default startup solution does not enable UTC datetimes.."

  Thanks. /tommy

  Correction:

  1. AspNet Zero default setting: Global.asax.cs is set with Clock.Provider = ClockProviders.Utc

  2. Remove or comment the line: System will default to ClockProvider.Unspecified

  3. To use local server time: ClockProvider.Local

  My understanding so far.

  Hi @tteoh,

  Thanks for sharing your findings. Do you use AspNet Zero template ? Normally UnspecifiedClockProvider should be default in the latest version.

  Thanks.

  Yes. I use AspNet Zero template. The Global.asax is set to use UTC. There is a comment states to remove the line of code if UTC is not required.

  Hi @tteoh,

  Thanks for the information. It was like that in previous versions but in current version we removed it and default clock provider is Unspecified right now.
