xtp_GetWinTZInfo bug

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Under some conditions, it is possible for the binary information in the property identified by xtpMAPIpropEvent_TimeZone to be longer than the current expectaion in xtp_GetWinTZInfo. The starting information is always the same so it can still be parsed, but the current code asserts. Could you change the != to < in the first line of xtp_GetWinTZInfo?

I'm afraid I can't identify under what conditions the extra data is there, it may be a result of OL2007 on Vista with data imported from OL2003. It may be something else. I also don't know what the extra data is. What I saw was about 70 bytes of NULL so it could be for a text name of the timezone if it is unorthodox. This is just a guess though. Fixing the one line of code should make this work.
