GLib.TimeZone.new_offset
Description: Reference for GLib.TimeZone.new_offset

### Function

# GLib TimeZonenew_offset

since: 2.58

#### Declaration [src]

    GTimeZone*
    g_time_zone_new_offset (
      gint32 seconds
    )

#### Description [src]

Creates a `GTimeZone` corresponding to the given constant offset from UTC, in seconds.

This is equivalent to calling `g_time_zone_new()` with a string in the form `[+|-]hh[:mm[:ss]]`.

It is possible for this function to fail if `seconds` is too big (greater than 24 hours), in which case this function will return the UTC timezone for backwards compatibility. To detect failures like this, use `g_time_zone_new_identifier()` directly.

Available since: 2.58

#### Parameters

`seconds`

  Type: `gint32`

  Offset to UTC, in seconds.

#### Return value

Type: `GTimeZone`

A timezone at the given offset from UTC, or UTC on failure.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
