ITimeZoneFactory Interface

Provides access to members that control the Time Zone Factory.

Description

The ITimeZoneFactory should be used whenever you need a reference to time zone. This is because the time zones are rules that are pre-defined, and using the pre-defined values saves memory, and prevents unnecessary errors. The time zone can be generated from well known ID (WKID) values, which can be queried from the time zone's Windows ID, or from the time zone's Olson ID.
