tzinfo 0.0.3

v0.0.3

on Ruby Gems

• Reduced visibility of some methods added in Timezone#setup and Country#setup.
• Added name method to Timezone (returns the identifier).
• Added friendly_identifier method to Timezone. Returns a more friendly version of the identifier.
• Added to_s method to Timezone. Returns the friendly identifier.
• Added == and <=> operators to Timezone (compares identifiers).
• Timezone now includes Comparable.
• Added to_s method to Country.
• Added == and <=> operators to Country (compares ISO 3166 country codes).
• Country now includes Comparable.
• New TimezoneProxy class that behaves the same as a Timezone but doesn't actually load in its definition until it is actually required.
• Modified Timezone and Country methods that return Timezone instances to return TimezoneProxy instances instead. This makes these methods much quicker.

In Ruby on Rails, you can now show a drop-down list of all time zones using the Rails time_zone_select helper method:

<%= time_zone_select 'user', 'time_zone', TZInfo::Timezone.all.sort, :model => TZInfo::Timezone %>
