Returns a new Time object representing time in local time (using the local time zone in effect for this process).
If utc_offset is given, it is used instead of the local time. utc_offset can be given as a human-readable string (eg. "+09:00") or as a number of seconds (eg. 32400).
Example
t = Time.utc(2000,1,1,20,15,1) #=> 2000-01-01 20:15:01 UTC t.utc? #=> true l = t.getlocal #=> 2000-01-01 14:15:01 -0600 l.utc? #=> false t == l #=> true j = t.getlocal("+09:00") #=> 2000-01-02 05:15:01 +0900 j.utc? #=> false t == j #=> true k = t.getlocal(9*60*60) #=> 2000-01-02 05:15:01 +0900 k.utc? #=> false t == k #=> true
