DateTime parameter is adjusted according to timezone

[Borr]

Hi,

I encountered a following problem : I have a web service,
and one of its methods gets parameter of DateTime type. My
server is found in another timezone, and it turns out that
DateTime that I pass from my client application arrives in
the server being adjusted according to difference of
timezones between client and server ! I am found 6 hours
east from the server - so DateTime that my web method gets
differs from DateTime I passed from the client application
by 6 hours.

Is it possible to cancel this adjust ? I want my web
service to get DateTime parameters "as is".

Best regards

Borr

This is a FAQ.

add
[XmlElement(DataType="date")]

to the DateTime field, it will serialize as an XML Schema "date".

Check the archives for more details.
