How can I get the current time programmatically in android in Los Angeles (USA)?

Question

Hi, I am developing an application in android. I need to use the current time, date in Los Angeles (USA). For this, I used the code below

Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance(); TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getTimeZone("America/Los_Angeles"); calendar.setTimeZone(tz); String s=calendar.getTime().toString(); 

But it indicates the current location and date. Please provide the code to find out the time and date, indicating the exact name of the location, for example, Los Angeles.

Answer 1

  Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance(); SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yyyy hh:mm:ss z"); sdf.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("America/Los_Angeles")); System.out.println(sdf.format(calendar.getTime())); 

FYI, a date is nothing more than a specific point in time.
