The useDaylightTime() method of TimeZone class is used perform a query on this time zone to know whether it uses the daylight saving time.
Syntax:
public abstract boolean useDaylightTime()
Parameters: The method does not accept any parameters.
Return Value: The method returns either of the two boolean values:
- ‘true’ if this time zone uses daylight saving time
- ‘false’ if this time zone does not use daylight saving time
Below program demonstrates the above-mentioned function:
Example 1:
// Program to demonstrate the// useDaylightTime() import java.util.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Create TimeZone object TimeZone obj = TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/Rome"); // Checking day light time // and displaying the result System.out.println("Day light time is = " + obj.useDaylightTime()); }} |
Output:
Day light time is = true
Example 2:
// Program to demonstrate the// useDaylightTime() import java.util.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // Create TimeZone object TimeZone obj = TimeZone.getTimeZone("Pacific/Pago_Pago"); // checking day light time // and printing the result System.out.println("Day light time is = " + obj.useDaylightTime()); }} |
Output:
Day light time is = false
