How do I access configuration variables from my Bootstrap in ZF?

Question

I just wanted to load a different timezone for my application depending on a configuration variable, so I added this method to my Bootstrap:

protected function setTimeZone () {     
    date_default_timezone_set($timezone);
}

But I'm stuck while trying to load $timezone from the variable named "timezone" in my configs/application.ini file, where I have this:

timezone = "America/Argentina/Cordoba"

Any idea, Thanks!

Try:

$config = $this->getOptions();
date_default_timezone_set($config['timezone']);

Or you may be able to set the timezone directly from the application config with:

phpSettings.date.timezone = "America/Argentina/Cordoba"
