NAME
       DateTime::TimeZone::Local::Win32 - Determine the local system's time zone on Windows

VERSION
       version 1.70

SYNOPSIS
         my $tz = DateTime::TimeZone->new( name => 'local' );

         my $tz = DateTime::TimeZone::Local->TimeZone();

DESCRIPTION
       This module provides methods for determining the local time zone on a Windows platform.

HOW THE TIME ZONE IS DETERMINED
       This class tries the following methods of determining the local time zone:

       o   $ENV{TZ}

           It checks $ENV{TZ} for a valid time zone name.

       o   Windows Registry

           When using the registry, we look for the Windows time zone and use a mapping to
           translate this to an Olson time zone name.

           o       Windows Vista and 2008

                   We look in "SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/TimeZoneInformation/" for a node
                   named "/TimeZoneKeyName". If this exists, we use this key to look up the Olson
                   time zone name in our mapping.

           o       Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server

                   We look in "SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows NT/CurrentVersion/Time Zones/" and loop
                   through all of its sub keys.

                   For each sub key, we compare the value of the key with "/Std" appended to the
                   end to the value of
                   "SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/TimeZoneInformation/StandardName". This
                   gives us the English name of the Windows time zone, which we use to look up
                   the Olson time zone name.

           o       Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Millenium Edition

                   The algorithm is the same as for NT, but we loop through the sub keys of
                   "SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Time Zones/"
