Is it possible using the EMA C++ SDK constructs to adjust the received timestamps such that they take into account the local time zone of the subscriber?

If not, is it intended that customers do the conversions themselves, thus assuming the timestamps are always UTC-referenced?

    Hello @trca,

    The timestamps in the real time data are all stamped in the UTC timezone. It is up to the users if a user wishes to convert to the local time.

    You can see an example of timezone conversion in this question.
