SimpleTimeZone setRawOffset() method in Java with Examples

The setRawOffset() method of SimpleTimeZone class is used to set the base time zone offset to GMT. The offset is added to UTC to get the local time.

Syntax:

public void setRawOffset(int offsetMillis)

Parameters: The function accepts a single parameter offsetMillis which specifies the given base time zone offset to GMT.

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 java.util.SimpleTimeZone.setRawOffset()import java.util.*;public class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {        // create simple time zone object        SimpleTimeZone obj            = new SimpleTimeZone(500, "GMT");        // printing RawOffset value        System.out.println("Initially RawOffset is = "                           + obj.getRawOffset());        // setting RawOffset on object obj        obj.setRawOffset(6000000);        System.out.println("RawOffset "                           + "set to 6000000");        // printing RawOffset value        System.out.println("Current RawOffset is = "                           + obj.getRawOffset());    }}

Output:

Initially RawOffset is = 500
RawOffset set to 6000000
Current RawOffset is = 6000000

Program 2:

Java

// program to demonstrate the// function java.util.SimpleTimeZone.setRawOffset()import java.util.*;public class GFG {    public static void main(String[] args)    {        // create simple time zone object        SimpleTimeZone obj            = new SimpleTimeZone(800, "GMT");        // printing RawOffset value        System.out.println("Initially RawOffset is = "                           + obj.getRawOffset());        // setting RawOffset on object obj        obj.setRawOffset(8000000);        System.out.println("RawOffset "                           + "set to 8000000");        // printing RawOffset value        System.out.println("Current RawOffset is = "                           + obj.getRawOffset());    }}

Output:

Initially RawOffset is = 800
RawOffset set to 8000000
Current RawOffset is = 8000000
