public abstract class TimeZone extends Object implements Serializable, Cloneable
TimeZone
represents a time zone offset, and also figures out daylight savings.Typically, you get a
TimeZone
usinggetDefault
which creates aTimeZone
based on the time zone where the program is running. For example, for a program running in Japan,getDefault
creates aTimeZone
object based on Japanese Standard Time.You can also get a
TimeZone
usinggetTimeZone
along with a time zone ID. For instance, the time zone ID for the U.S. Pacific Time zone is "America/Los_Angeles". So, you can get a U.S. Pacific TimeTimeZone
object with:
You can use theTimeZone tz = TimeZone.getTimeZone("America/Los_Angeles");
getAvailableIDs
method to iterate through all the supported time zone IDs. You can then choose a supported ID to get aTimeZone
. If the time zone you want is not represented by one of the supported IDs, then a custom time zone ID can be specified to produce a TimeZone. The syntax of a custom time zone ID is:
Hours must be between 0 to 23 and Minutes must be between 00 to 59. For example, "GMT+10" and "GMT+0010" mean ten hours and ten minutes ahead of GMT, respectively.CustomID:
GMT
Sign Hours:
MinutesGMT
Sign Hours MinutesGMT
Sign Hours Sign: one of+ -
Hours: Digit Digit Digit Minutes: Digit Digit Digit: one of0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
The format is locale independent and digits must be taken from the Basic Latin block of the Unicode standard. No daylight saving time transition schedule can be specified with a custom time zone ID. If the specified string doesn't match the syntax,
"GMT"
is used.When creating a
TimeZone
, the specified custom time zone ID is normalized in the following syntax:
For example, TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT-8").getID() returns "GMT-08:00".NormalizedCustomID:

Minutes Sign: one of+ -
TwoDigitHours: Digit Digit Minutes: Digit Digit Digit: one of0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Three-letter time zone IDs
For compatibility with JDK 1.1.x, some other three-letter time zone IDs (such as "PST", "CTT", "AST") are also supported. However, their use is deprecated because the same abbreviation is often used for multiple time zones (for example, "CST" could be U.S. "Central Standard Time" and "China Standard Time"), and the Java platform can then only recognize one of them.- Since:

getOffset
public abstract int getOffset(int era, int year, int month, int day, int dayOfWeek, int milliseconds)
Gets the time zone offset, for current date, modified in case of daylight savings. This is the offset to add to UTC to get local time.This method returns a historically correct offset if an underlying
TimeZone
implementation subclass supports historical Daylight Saving Time schedule and GMT offset changes.- Parameters:
era
- the era of the given date.year
- the year in the given date.month
- the month in the given date. Month is 0-based. e.g., 0 for January.day
- the day-in-month of the given date.dayOfWeek
- the day-of-week of the given date.milliseconds
- the milliseconds in day in standard local time.- Returns:
- the offset in milliseconds to add to GMT to get local time.
- See Also:
Calendar.ZONE_OFFSET
,Calendar.DST_OFFSET
-
getOffset
public int getOffset(long date)
Returns the offset of this time zone from UTC at the specified date. If Daylight Saving Time is in effect at the specified date, the offset value is adjusted with the amount of daylight saving.This method returns a historically correct offset value if an underlying TimeZone implementation subclass supports historical Daylight Saving Time schedule and GMT offset changes.
- Parameters:
date
- the date represented in milliseconds since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 GMT- Returns:
- the amount of time in milliseconds to add to UTC to get local time.
- Since:
- 1.4
- See Also:
Calendar.ZONE_OFFSET
,Calendar.DST_OFFSET

setRawOffset
public abstract void setRawOffset(int offsetMillis)
Sets the base time zone offset to GMT. This is the offset to add to UTC to get local time.If an underlying
TimeZone
implementation subclass supports historical GMT offset changes, the specified GMT offset is set as the latest GMT offset and the difference from the known latest GMT offset value is used to adjust all historical GMT offset values.- Parameters:
offsetMillis
- the given base time zone offset to GMT.
-
getRawOffset
public abstract int getRawOffset()
Returns the amount of time in milliseconds to add to UTC to get standard time in this time zone. Because this value is not affected by daylight saving time, it is called raw offset.If an underlying
TimeZone
implementation subclass supports historical GMT offset changes, the method returns the raw offset value of the current date. In Honolulu, for example, its raw offset changed from GMT-10:30 to GMT-10:00 in 1947, and this method always returns -36000000 milliseconds (i.e., -10 hours).- Returns:
- the amount of raw offset time in milliseconds to add to UTC.

istrue
, a Daylight Saving Time name is returned (even if thisTimeZone
doesn't observe Daylight Saving Time). Otherwise, a Standard Time name is returned.This method is equivalent to:

istrue
, a Daylight Saving Time name is returned (even if thisTimeZone
doesn't observe Daylight Saving Time). Otherwise, a Standard Time name is returned.When looking up a time zone name, the default
Locale
search path ofResourceBundle
derived from the specifiedlocale
is used. (No fallbackLocale
search is performed.) If a time zone name in anyLocale
of the search path, includingLocale.ROOT
, is found, the name is returned. Otherwise, a string in the normalized custom ID format is returned.- Parameters:
daylight
-true
specifying a Daylight Saving Time name, orfalse
