从.NET设置系统时区
有没有人有一些代码，将采取从.NET的TimeZoneInfo字段，并通过SetTimeZoneInformation执行interop代码设置系统时区？ 我意识到它基本上是将TimeZoneInfo成员映射到结构成员，但是对于我而言，这些字段如何精确地映射或者我应该关心什么以外的偏见并不明显。
我不知道这是你在找什么，但是有一些关于如何使用Win32函数获取和设置时区信息的信息
http://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/kernel32/GetTimeZoneInformation.html
以下示例代码的主要部分取自本网站。 我只是添加了几行来实际调用GetTimeZone（）方法，并修正了SystemTime结构的访问修饰符中的一个小错误，以使样本工作。
希望这可以帮助…

应用程序必须具有此function的SE_TIME_ZONE_NAME特权才能成功。 此特权在默认情况下被禁用。
以下是一些示例代码来启用此特权：
public class AdjustTokenPrivilegesFunctionality { [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] private struct LUID { public uint LowPart; public int HighPart; } [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] private struct LUID_AND_ATTRIBUTES { public LUID Luid; public UInt32 Attributes; } private struct TOKEN_PRIVILEGES { public UInt32 PrivilegeCount; [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValArray, SizeConst = 1)] public LUID_AND_ATTRIBUTES[] Privileges; } public const string SE_TIME_ZONE_NAME = "SeTimeZonePrivilege"; public const int TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES = 0x00000020; public const int TOKEN_QUERY = 0x00000008; public const int SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED = 0x00000002; [DllImport("advapi32.dll", SetLastError = true)] [return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)] private static extern bool AdjustTokenPrivileges(IntPtr TokenHandle, bool DisableAllPrivileges, ref TOKEN_PRIVILEGES NewState, UInt32 Zero, IntPtr Null1, IntPtr Null2); [DllImport("advapi32.dll", SetLastError = true, CharSet = CharSet.Auto)] private static extern int OpenProcessToken(int ProcessHandle, int DesiredAccess, out IntPtr tokenhandle); [DllImport("kernel32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto)] private static extern int GetCurrentProcess(); [DllImport("advapi32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto)] private static extern int LookupPrivilegeValue(string lpsystemname, string lpname, [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Struct)] ref LUID lpLuid); static void EnableSetTimeZonePrivileges() { // We must add the set timezone privilege to the process token or SetTimeZoneInformation will fail IntPtr token; int retval = OpenProcessToken(GetCurrentProcess(), TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES | TOKEN_QUERY, out token); Assert.IsTrue(retval != 0, String.Format("OpenProcessToken failed. GetLastError: {0}", Marshal.GetLastWin32Error())); LUID luid = new LUID(); retval = LookupPrivilegeValue(null, SE_TIME_ZONE_NAME, ref luid); Assert.IsTrue(retval != 0, String.Format("LookupPrivilegeValue failed. GetLastError: {0}", Marshal.GetLastWin32Error())); TOKEN_PRIVILEGES tokenPrivs = new TOKEN_PRIVILEGES(); tokenPrivs.PrivilegeCount = 1; tokenPrivs.Privileges = new LUID_AND_ATTRIBUTES[1]; tokenPrivs.Privileges[0].Luid = luid; tokenPrivs.Privileges[0].Attributes = SE_PRIVILEGE_ENABLED; Assert.IsTrue(AdjustTokenPrivileges(token, false, ref tokenPrivs, 0, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero), String.Format("AdjustTokenPrivileges failed. GetLastError: {0}", Marshal.GetLastWin32Error())); } }
还有另外一种方法可以做到这一点，虽然这有些破解，但是在实践中效果很好：
public void SetSystemTimeZone(string timeZoneId) { var process = Process.Start(new ProcessStartInfo { FileName = "tzutil.exe", Arguments = "/s \"" + timeZoneId + "\"", UseShellExecute = false, CreateNoWindow = true }); if (process != null) { process.WaitForExit(); TimeZoneInfo.ClearCachedData(); } }
只需调用此方法并传递您希望设置的TimeZoneInfo.Id 。 例如：
SetSystemTimeZone("Eastern Standard Time");
运行此代码不需要特殊的权限，因为tzutil.exe已经具有适当的权限。
