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:

Output:
Initially DST saving value is = 3500000 DST saving value set to 4000000 Current DST saving value is = 4000000
