# KTimeZones Class Reference

`from PyKDE4.kdecore import *`

## Detailed Description

The KTimeZones class represents a time zone database which consists of a collection of individual time zone definitions.

Each individual time zone is defined in a KTimeZone instance, which provides generic support for private or system time zones. The time zones in the collection are indexed by name, which must be unique within the collection.

Different time zone sources could define the same time zone differently. (For example, a calendar file originating from another system might hold its own time zone definitions, which may not necessarily be identical to your own system's definitions.) In order to keep conflicting definitions separate, it will often be necessary when dealing with multiple time zone sources to create a separate KTimeZones instance for each source collection.

If you want to access system time zones, use the KSystemTimeZones class.
