The setEndRule(int endofMonth, int endofDay, int endofTime) method of SimpleTimeZone class in Java is used to set a particular rule of the day-light saving time to a fixed date within a given month.
Syntax:
public void setEndRule(int endofMonth,
int endofDay,
int endofTime)
Parameters: The method takes three parameters:
- endofMonth: This is of Integer type and refers to the ending month of the daylight saving time.
- endofDay: This is of Integer type and refers to the ending day of the daylight saving time.
- endofTime: This is of Integer type and refers to the ending time of the daylight saving time.
Return Value: The method does not return any value.
Below programs illustrate the use of setEndRule() Method in Java:
Example 1:
// Java code to demonstrate// setEndRule() method  import java.util.*;  public class SimpleTimeZone_Demo {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          // Creating SimpleTimeZone object        SimpleTimeZone simtimeobj            = new SimpleTimeZone(100, "GMT");          // Displaying the Initial value        System.out.println(            "Initial value: " + simtimeobj);          // Setting an EnDRule        simtimeobj.setEndRule(Calendar.APRIL,                              28, 3600000);          // Displaying the New value        System.out.println(            "New value: " + simtimeobj);    }} |
Output:
Initial value: java.util.SimpleTimeZone[id=GMT, offset=100, dstSavings=3600000, useDaylight=false, startYear=0, startMode=0, startMonth=0, startDay=0, startDayOfWeek=0, startTime=0, startTimeMode=0, endMode=0, endMonth=0, endDay=0, endDayOfWeek=0, endTime=0, endTimeMode=0] New value: java.util.SimpleTimeZone[id=GMT, offset=100, dstSavings=3600000, useDaylight=false, startYear=0, startMode=0, startMonth=0, startDay=0, startDayOfWeek=0, startTime=0, startTimeMode=0, endMode=1, endMonth=3, endDay=28, endDayOfWeek=0, endTime=3600000, endTimeMode=0]
Example 2:
// Java code to demonstrate// setEndRule() method  import java.util.*;  public class SimpleTimeZone_Demo {    public static void main(String[] args)    {          // Creating SimpleTimeZone object        SimpleTimeZone simtimeobj            = new SimpleTimeZone(120, "GMT");          // Displaying the Initial value        System.out.println(            "Initial value: " + simtimeobj);          // Setting an EnDRule        simtimeobj.setEndRule(Calendar.JANUARY,                              15, 3600000);          // Displaying the New value        System.out.println(            "New value: " + simtimeobj);    }} |
Output:
Initial value: java.util.SimpleTimeZone[id=GMT, offset=120, dstSavings=3600000, useDaylight=false, startYear=0, startMode=0, startMonth=0, startDay=0, startDayOfWeek=0, startTime=0, startTimeMode=0, endMode=0, endMonth=0, endDay=0, endDayOfWeek=0, endTime=0, endTimeMode=0] New value: java.util.SimpleTimeZone[id=GMT, offset=120, dstSavings=3600000, useDaylight=false, startYear=0, startMode=0, startMonth=0, startDay=0, startDayOfWeek=0, startTime=0, startTimeMode=0, endMode=1, endMonth=0, endDay=15, endDayOfWeek=0, endTime=3600000, endTimeMode=0]
