I have the following function which i am using to calculate a start and end of todays date. It was working perfectly last week, i think it may have something to do with the clocks going forwards?
func rangeOfPeriod(period: NSCalendarUnit, date: NSDate) -> (NSDate, NSDate) {
let calendar = NSCalendar.currentCalendar()
var startDate: NSDate? = nil
var duration: NSTimeInterval = 0
calendar.rangeOfUnit(period, startDate: &startDate, interval: &duration, forDate: date)
let endDate = startDate!.dateByAddingTimeInterval(duration - 1)
return (startDate!, endDate)
}
When I try and calculate the start and end of a day using:
print("Start of Day = \(rangeOfPeriod(.Day, date: NSDate()).0), End of Day = \(rangeOfPeriod(.Day, date: NSDate()).1)")
I get the following, where the start and end date is 1hour behind what is expected:
Start of Day = 2016-03-27 23:00:00 +0000, End of Day = 2016-03-28 22:59:59 +0000
when i would expect:
Start of Day = 2016-03-28 00:00:00 +0000, End of Day = 2016-03-28 23:59:59 +0000
Any help would be appreciated
