How to convert local time to GMT time?

Tags: gmt, time, convert, local

Hi all,

I want to convert local time to GMT time. However, I implemented the code below:

java.text.SimpleDateFormat format0 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
        java.text.SimpleDateFormat format1 = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
        java.util.Calendar cal0 = Calendar.getInstance(new SimpleTimeZone(0, "GMT"));
        java.util.Calendar cal1 = Calendar.getInstance(Calendar.getInstance().getTimeZone().getDefault());
        format0.setCalendar(cal0);
        format1.setCalendar(cal1);
        java.util.Date date = format1.parse(format0.format(localDate) + " GMT");
        java.lang.String formatted = format0.format(date);

The result is Mon Jan 30 23:33:17 PST 2006

I don't know why the timezone display PST instead of GMT. Do you have any idea?Start Free Trial
