//@PURPOSE: Enumerate the set of local time validity codes.
//
//@CLASSES:
//  baltzo::LocalTimeValidity: namespace for local time validity 'enum'
//
//@SEE_ALSO: baltzo_localtimedescriptor, baltzo_timezoneutil
//
//@DESCRIPTION: This component provides a namespace,
// 'baltzo::LocalTimeValidity', for the 'enum' type
// 'baltzo::LocalTimeValidity::Enum', which enumerates the set of validity
// codes that can be attributed to a local time.  Due to the vagaries of time
// zones, and transitions among daylight-saving time and standard time, a
// particular representation of local clock time may be deemed to be strictly
// invalid, or (uniquely or ambiguously) valid.
//
///Enumerators
///-----------
//..
//  Name               Description
//  -----------------  ---------------------------------------
//  e_VALID_UNIQUE     Local time is *valid* and *unique*.
//  e_VALID_AMBIGUOUS  Local time is *valid*, but *ambiguous*.
//  e_INVALID          Local time is *invalid*.
//..
// For example, consider the following purported New York local times and their
// corresponding 'baltzo::LocalTimeValidity::Enum' values:
//..
//  New York Local Time     Validity Code
//  -------------------     ----------------------
//  Jan  1, 2010 2:30am     e_VALID_UNIQUE
//  Mar 14, 2010 2:30am     e_INVALID
//  Nov  7, 2010 1:30am     e_VALID_AMBIGUOUS
//..
// On January 1, 2010 in New York, Eastern Standard Time (EST) was in effect
// and the transition to Eastern Daylight-Saving Time (EDT) was still weeks
// away; "Jan 1, 2010 2:30am" is a patently valid -- and unique -- New York
// local time.  The transition to EDT in New York in 2010 occurred on March 14
// as of 2:00am EST, or more precisely, as of 7:00am UTC (which would have been
// 2:00am EST, but became 3:00am EDT).  Consequently, "Mar 14, 2010 2:30am" is
// an invalid New York local time, since clocks were advanced by one hour as of
// 2:00am EST.  The change from EDT back to EST in New York in 2010 occurred on
// November 7 as of 2:00am EDT.  Due to this transition, "Nov 7, 2010 1:30am"
// is a valid New York local time.  However, that local time is ambiguous
// because it corresponds to two possible clock times, 1:30am EDT and 1:30am
// EST, since clocks were regressed by one hour as of 2:00am EDT (7:00am UTC).
//
///Usage
///-----
// This section illustrates intended use of this component.
//
///Example 1: Basic Syntax
///- - - - - - - - - - - -
// The following snippets of code provide a simple illustration of
// 'baltzo::LocalTimeValidity' usage.
//
// First, we create a variable 'value' of type
// 'baltzo::LocalTimeValidity::Enum' and initialize it with the enumerator
// value 'baltzo::LocalTimeValidity::e_VALID_AMBIGUOUS':
//..
//  baltzo::LocalTimeValidity::Enum value =
//                                baltzo::LocalTimeValidity::e_VALID_AMBIGUOUS;
//..
// Now, we store a pointer to its ASCII representation in a variable
// 'asciiValue' of type 'const char *':
//..
//  const char *asciiValue = baltzo::LocalTimeValidity::toAscii(value);
//  assert(0 == bsl::strcmp(asciiValue, "VALID_AMBIGUOUS"));
//..
// Finally, we print 'value' to 'bsl::cout'.
//..
//  bsl::cout << value << bsl::endl;
//..
// This statement produces the following output on 'stdout':
//..
//  VALID_AMBIGUOUS
//..
