SimpleTimeZone setDSTSavings() method in Java with Examples
The setDSTSavings() method of SimpleTimeZone class is used to set the amount of time that the clock is advanced during daylight saving time. The calculation is done in milliseconds.
Syntax:
public void setDSTSavings(int millisSavedDuringDST)
Parameters: The function accepts a single parameter millisSavedDuringDST which specifies the number of milliseconds the time is advanced with respect to standard time.
Return Value: The method has no return value.
Exception: The function does not throws any exception.
Program below demonstrates the above mentioned function:
Program 1:
Java
// program to demonstrate the// function SimpleTimeZone.setDSTSavings()import java.util.*;public class GFG {   public static void main(String[] args)   {       // create simple time zone object       SimpleTimeZone obj           = new SimpleTimeZone(-28800000,                                "US",                                Calendar.MAY,                                1,                                -Calendar.SUNDAY,                                7200000,                                Calendar.NOVEMBER,                                -1,                                Calendar.MONDAY,                                7000000,                                3500000);       // printing DST value       System.out.println("Initially DST saving value is = "                          + obj.getDSTSavings());       // setting DST saving time on object obj       obj.setDSTSavings(6000000);       System.out.println("DST saving value "                          + "set to 6000000");       // printing DST value       System.out.println("Current DST saving value is = "                          + obj.getDSTSavings());   }} |
Output:
Initially DST saving value is = 3500000 DST saving value set to 6000000 Current DST saving value is = 6000000
Program 2:
Java
// program to demonstrate the// function SimpleTimeZone.setDSTSavings()import java.util.*;public class GFG {   public static void main(String[] args)   {       // create simple time zone object       SimpleTimeZone obj           = new SimpleTimeZone(-28800000,                                "US",                                Calendar.MAY,                                1,                                -Calendar.MONDAY,                                7200000,                                Calendar.JULY,                                -1,                                Calendar.MONDAY,                                7000000,                                3500000);       // printing DST value       System.out.println("Initially DST saving value is = "                          + obj.getDSTSavings());       // setting DST saving time on object obj       obj.setDSTSavings(4000000);       System.out.println("DST saving value "                          + "set to 4000000");       // printing DST value       System.out.println("Current DST saving value is = "                          + obj.getDSTSavings());   }} |
Output:
Initially DST saving value is = 3500000 DST saving value set to 4000000 Current DST saving value is = 4000000
