/// # Description {#baltzo_zoneinfo-description}
/// This component provides a *value* *semantic* type,
/// `baltzo::Zoneinfo`, that represents the information about a specific time
/// zone contained in the Zoneinfo database.  In addition, this component
/// provides an unconstrained *in-core* *value-semantic* type
/// `baltzo::ZoneinfoTransition` that can be used to characterize a transition
/// for time zones.
///
/// ## baltzo::ZoneinfoTransition {#baltzo_zoneinfo-baltzo-zoneinfotransition}
///
///
/// A `baltzo::ZoneinfoTransition` contains:
/// @code
/// Name        Type
/// ----------  --------------------------
/// utcTime     bdlt::EpochUtil::TimeT64
/// descriptor  baltzo::LocalTimeDescriptor
/// @endcode
/// * `utcTime`: UTC time when a transition occurs
/// * `descriptor`: local time value corresponding to the time transition
///
/// For example, in New York on March 14, 2011, at the instant 1 a.m., clocks
/// are set forward by an hour to mark the transition from Eastern Standard Time
/// to Eastern Daylight Time.  This change can be represented by a
/// `baltzo::ZoneinfoTransition` object whose `utcTime` refers to March 14,
/// 2011, 1am and whose `descriptor` describes Eastern Daylight Time (i.e.,
/// description is "EDT", `dstInEffectFlag` is `true`, and `utcOffsetInSeconds`
/// is -14,400 (-4 * 60 * 60)).
///
/// ## baltzo::Zoneinfo {#baltzo_zoneinfo-baltzo-zoneinfo}
///
///
/// A `baltzo::Zoneinfo` contains:
///
/// * the time zone identifier (e.g., "America/New_York" or "Asia/Tokyo")
/// * the ordered sequence of `baltzo::ZoneinfoTransition` objects,
///   representing the various transitions from UTC for this time zone.
/// * an optional POSIX-like TZ environment string used to represent
///   far-reaching times past the end of the explicit time zone data.
///
/// A `baltzo::Zoneinfo` object also provides the method
/// `findTransitionForUtcTime` that allows a client to find, in the sequence of
/// transitions, the appropriate transition whose local-time descriptor
/// describes the properties of local time, at a specified UTC time, for the
/// time zone in question.  Note that, even though this information is
/// sufficient for converting local date and time, to their corresponding values
/// in other time zones, clients are encouraged to use the utilities provided in
/// @ref baltzo_timezoneutil .  Also note that, `baltzo::Zoneinfo` objects are
/// typically populated by the client through the `baltzo::Loader` protocol, and
/// not directly.
///
/// ## Zoneinfo Database {#baltzo_zoneinfo-zoneinfo-database}
///
///
/// This database, also referred to as either the TZ database or the Olson
/// database (after its creator, Arthur Olson), is a standard, public-domain
/// time-zone information distribution used by many software systems (including
/// a number of Unix variants and the Java Runtime Environment).  Information
/// about the Zoneinfo database -- including the time zone rules for the
/// supported time zones, and source code for the `zic` compiler (for compiling
/// those rules into the binary representation used by this component) -- can be
/// found online at `http://www.iana.org/time-zones/repository/tz-link.html`.
/// This time zone information can be used to perform the conversion of dates
/// and times from UTC to their corresponding dates and times in a given time
/// zone and vice-versa.  (See @ref baltzo_zoneinfobinaryreader  for more
/// information about the binary file format.)
///
/// ## posixExtendedRangeDescription {#baltzo_zoneinfo-posixextendedrangedescription}
///
///
/// This string may be populated with a POSIX-like TZ string that describes
/// rules for local time are handled before the first and after the last
/// local-time transitions maintained by this object.  Typically this is used
/// for computing local time values far in the future.  The rules for the
/// encoded string can be found online at
/// `http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/aix/library/au-aix-posix/`.
///
/// ## Usage {#baltzo_zoneinfo-usage}
///
///
/// The following usage examples illustrate how to populate a `baltzo::Zoneinfo`
/// object and use it to transform a UTC time into a local time.
///
/// ### Example 1: Populate a baltzo::Zoneinfo {#baltzo_zoneinfo-example-1-populate-a-baltzo-zoneinfo}
///
///
/// Suppose we want to represent the time-zone information for New York, in 2010
/// using a `baltzo::Zoneinfo` object.  In order to do so, we need to provide
/// the UTC date-times (transitions) after which the time zone changes its
/// offset from UTC, or daylight-saving Time starts or ends.
///
/// First, we define two times "Mar 14, 2010 6:00 AM" and "Nov 07, 2010 7:00 AM"
/// representing respectively the UTC time at which New York transitions to
/// Eastern Daylight-saving Time (EDT) and Eastern Standard Time (EST) in 2010:
/// @code
/// bdlt::Datetime edtDatetime(2010, 03, 14, 2, 0);
/// bdlt::Datetime estDatetime(2010, 11, 07, 2, 0);
/// @endcode
/// Then, we create two local-time descriptors that hold the offset from UTC and
/// DST status for EST and EDT in New York in 2010, in terms of their
/// `offsetFromUtcInSeconds`, `dstInEffectFlag` and `description` attributes:
/// @code
/// const baltzo::LocalTimeDescriptor est(-5 * 60 * 60, false, "EST");
/// const baltzo::LocalTimeDescriptor edt(-4 * 60 * 60, true,  "EDT");
/// @endcode
/// Note that these descriptors will be associated with the created transition
/// times, to reflect how local time in New York changes its offset from UTC and
/// DST status after specific times.
///
/// Next, we create an empty `baltzo::Zoneinfo` object that will be populated
/// with the information necessary to describe the time zone for New York:
/// @code
/// baltzo::Zoneinfo newYorkTimeZone;
/// @endcode
/// Then, before being able to associate the transition times with their
/// corresponding descriptors, we need translate the transition times to
/// `bdlt::EpochUtil::TimeT64`:
/// @code
/// bdlt::EpochUtil::TimeT64 edtTransitionTime =
///                             bdlt::EpochUtil::convertToTimeT64(edtDatetime);
/// bdlt::EpochUtil::TimeT64 estTransitionTime =
///                             bdlt::EpochUtil::convertToTimeT64(estDatetime);
/// @endcode
/// Now, we associate the created descriptors with the transitions we indicated
/// previously and add them to `newYorkTimeZone` using the `addTransition`
/// method:
/// @code
/// newYorkTimeZone.addTransition(edtTransitionTime, edt);
/// newYorkTimeZone.addTransition(estTransitionTime, est);
/// @endcode
/// Note that this insertion operation maintains the transitions in order of
/// transition time, and therefore inserting transitions out-of-order, while not
/// illegal, is very inefficient.
///
/// Finally we verify that the `newYorkTimeZone` contains the transitions we
/// indicated:
/// @code
/// {
///     baltzo::Zoneinfo::TransitionConstIterator it =
///                                         newYorkTimeZone.beginTransitions();
///
///     assert(it->utcTime()    == edtTransitionTime);
///     assert(it->descriptor() == edt);
///     ++it;
///     assert(it->utcTime()    == estTransitionTime);
///     assert(it->descriptor() == est);
/// }
/// @endcode
/// Notice that the iterator refers to a `baltzo::ZoneinfoTransition` object.
///
/// ### Example 2: Converting UTC to Local Time {#baltzo_zoneinfo-example-2-converting-utc-to-local-time}
///
///
/// Suppose that we want to program a function, `utcToLocalTime` to perform the
/// conversion from a UTC time value to the corresponding local time value, in a
/// given time zone, and return the computed local time:
///
/// First we declare the function `utcToLocalTime` and its contract:
/// @code
/// /// Return the `bdlt::DatetimeTz` value representing the date, time and
/// /// offset from UTC (rounded to the minute) value of the local time,
/// /// corresponding to the specified `utcTime` in the specified
/// /// `timeZone`.  The behavior is undefined if the `utcTime` precedes the
/// /// time of the first transition contained in `timeZone` and
/// /// `0 < timeZone.numTransitions()`.
/// static bdlt::DatetimeTz utcToLocalTime(const bdlt::Datetime&   utcTime,
///                                       const baltzo::Zoneinfo& timeZone)
/// {
/// @endcode
/// Then, we check the precondition of `utcToLocalTime`, by checking that
/// `timeZone` contains at least one transitions and comparing `utcTime` to the
/// first transition time in `timeZone`:
/// @code
///     BSLS_ASSERT(0 < timeZone.numTransitions());
///     BSLS_ASSERT(timeZone.firstTransition().utcTime() <=
///                                bdlt::EpochUtil::convertToTimeT64(utcTime));
/// @endcode
/// Next, we obtain the appropriate `baltzo::ZoneinfoTransition` object,
/// invoking the method `findTransitionForUtcTime` on `timeZone`:
/// @code
///     baltzo::Zoneinfo::TransitionConstIterator it =
///                                 timeZone.findTransitionForUtcTime(utcTime);
/// @endcode
/// Then, we access the descriptor associated with the transition to which `it`
/// refers, and calculate the offset from UTC rounded to the minute:
/// @code
///     const baltzo::ZoneinfoTransition& transition = *it;
///     const int offsetInMinutes =
///                          transition.descriptor().utcOffsetInSeconds() / 60;
/// @endcode
/// Now, we apply the obtained `offsetInMinutes` to the originally specified
/// `utcTime` obtaining the corresponding local time in the specified
/// `timeZone`:
/// @code
///     bdlt::Datetime temp(utcTime);
///     temp.addMinutes(offsetInMinutes);
/// @endcode
/// Finally, return the local time value together with its offset from UTC:
/// @code
///     return bdlt::DatetimeTz(temp, offsetInMinutes);
/// }
/// @endcode
/// Suppose, now, we want to convert UTC time to the corresponding local time in
/// New York.  We can do so using the previously defined function
/// `utcToLocalTime` and reusing the `baltzo::Zoneinfo` object,
/// `newYorkTimeZone` of Example 1.
///
/// First, we define `bdlt::Datetime` object representing the UTC time "Apr 10,
/// 2010 12:00":
/// @code
/// bdlt::Datetime utcDatetime(2010, 04, 10, 12, 0, 0);
/// @endcode
/// Then, we invoke `utcToLocalTime` passing `newYorkTimeZone` as a time zone
/// and save the result:
/// @code
/// bdlt::DatetimeTz nyDatetime = utcToLocalTime(utcDatetime, newYorkTimeZone);
/// @endcode
/// Finally, we compute the New York local time corresponding to `utcDatetime`,
/// verify that "April 10, 2010 8:00" is the computed time:
/// @code
/// const bdlt::Datetime expectedTime(2010, 4, 10, 8, 0, 0);
/// assert(-4 * 60      == nyDatetime.offset());
/// assert(expectedTime == nyDatetime.localDatetime());
/// @endcode
