I think it should be creationtime or creation_time, but not creationTime.
Taking the domain XML as an example, all 3 styles are used (e.g. currentMemory, on_poweroff, and seclabel). I don't really care too much, so I'll do whatever is more comfortable.
I missed currentMemory and since it's already a mixture of all styles lets just keep creationTime.

Again, you handle the time in local time. You could use %F_%T%z to include the local time zone and then handle that in the parsing function to get a correct UTC time back.
Maybe a better solution is to just store the Unix time in seconds in UTC (as returned by the time() function) in the XML and let applications do the conversion into a more human readable format and take care of timezone stuff. This way we get rid of the timezone problem at the libvirt level at all.
Well, I was sort of shooting for that by defining the field to be UTC (which I obviously mis-implemented with localtime_r). It would be nice to have a human-readable string in the XML, though, which is why I didn't just use seconds since the Epoch. Can I just use gmtime_r() here to get the time in UTC, and then strptime and mktime above will do the right thing?
I think the problem is that struct tm doesn't contain a timezone filed. Therefore, strptime parses a time that is not fixed in a timezone. So even If we would use a time format like 2010-04-02_12:30:58+0200 it won't help with strptime. strptime knows %z for timezone part, but just ignores it. mktime operates in local time. The man page says: "The mktime() function converts a broken-down time structure, expressed as local time, to calendar time representation" So gmtime_r doesn't help. I think we could use seconds since the Epoch from time() as the actual value, and attach a human readable version (from strftime with "%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S %z" in RFC 2822 format) in a comment like this: <creationTime>1270221648</creationTime><!-- Fri, 02 Apr 2010 17:20:48 +0200 --> That way we don't need to deal with the subtle timezone stuff as seconds since the Epoch is in UTC and we have a human readable version in virsh snapshot-dumpxml for example. Applications then can take the seconds since the Epoch value and format it as they like to local time or what ever they prefer. Matthias
