27.11.4.2 Class local_­info [time.zone.info.local]

namespace std::chrono { struct local_info { static constexpr int unique = 0; static constexpr int nonexistent = 1; static constexpr int ambiguous = 2; int result; sys_info first; sys_info second; }; }
[Note 1:
This type provides a low-level interface to time zone information.
Typical conversions from local_­time to sys_­time will use this class implicitly, not explicitly.
— end note]
Describes the result of converting a local_­time to a sys_­time as follows:
  • When a local_­time to sys_­time conversion is unique, result == unique, first will be filled out with the correct sys_­info, and second will be zero-initialized.
  • If the conversion stems from a nonexistent local_­time then result == nonexistent, first will be filled out with the sys_­info that ends just prior to the local_­time, and second will be filled out with the sys_­info that begins just after the local_­time.
  • If the conversion stems from an ambiguous local_­time, then result == ambiguous, first will be filled out with the sys_­info that ends just after the local_­time, and second will be filled out with the sys_­info that starts just before the local_­time.
template<class charT, class traits> basic_ostream<charT, traits>& operator<<(basic_ostream<charT, traits>& os, const local_info& r);
Effects: Streams out the local_­info object r in an unspecified format.
Returns: os.
