## Class template time_zone_names_base

boost::date_time::time_zone_names_base — Base type that holds various string names for timezone output.

## Synopsis

    // In header: <boost/date_time/time_zone_names.hpp>

    template<typename CharT>
    class time_zone_names_base {
    public:
      // types
      typedef std::basic_string< CharT > string_type;

      // construct/copy/destruct
      time_zone_names_base();
      time_zone_names_base(const string_type &, const string_type &,
                           const string_type &, const string_type &);

      // public member functions
      string_type dst_zone_abbrev() const;
      string_type std_zone_abbrev() const;
      string_type dst_zone_name() const;
      string_type std_zone_name() const;
    };

## Description

Class that holds various types of strings used for timezones. For example, for the western United States there is the full name: Pacific Standard Time and the abbreviated name: PST. During daylight savings there are additional names: Pacific Daylight Time and PDT. CharT Allows class to support different character types
