NAME         top

       pmWhichZone - return current reporting timezone

C SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <pcp/pmapi.h>
       int pmWhichZone(char **tz);
       cc ... -lpcp

DESCRIPTION         top

       The current reporting timezone effects the timezone used by
       pmCtime(3) and pmLocaltime(3).
       pmWhichZone returns the handle of the current timezone, as previously
       established by a call to pmNewZone(3) or pmNewContextZone(3).  If the
       call is successful (i.e. there exists a current reporting timezone)
       then a non-negative integer is returned and tz is set to point to a
       static buffer containing the timezone string itself.

DIAGNOSTICS         top

       A return value less than zero indicates there is no current reporting
       timezone.
