54 * <code>TimeZone</code> represents a time zone offset, and also figures out daylight
58 * Typically, you get a <code>TimeZone</code> using <code>createDefault</code>
59 * which creates a <code>TimeZone</code> based on the time zone where the program
60 * is running. For example, for a program running in Japan, <code>createDefault</code>
61 * creates a <code>TimeZone</code> object based on Japanese Standard Time.
64 * You can also get a <code>TimeZone</code> using <code>createTimeZone</code> along
65 * with a time zone ID. For instance, the time zone ID for the US Pacific
66 * Time zone is "America/Los_Angeles". So, you can get a Pacific Time <code>TimeZone</code> object
68 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
70 * TimeZone *tz = TimeZone::createTimeZone("America/Los_Angeles");
72 * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
73 * You can use the <code>createEnumeration</code> method to iterate through
74 * all the supported time zone IDs, or the <code>getCanonicalID</code> method to check
75 * if a time zone ID is supported or not. You can then choose a
76 * supported ID to get a <code>TimeZone</code>.
77 * If the time zone you want is not represented by one of the
78 * supported IDs, then you can create a custom time zone ID with
79 * the following syntax:
81 * \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
85 * \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
87 * For example, you might specify GMT+14:00 as a custom
88 * time zone ID. The <code>TimeZone</code> that is returned
89 * when you specify a custom time zone ID uses the specified
90 * offset from GMT(=UTC) and does not observe daylight saving
91 * time. For example, you might specify GMT+14:00 as a custom
92 * time zone ID to create a TimeZone representing 14 hours ahead
93 * of GMT (with no daylight saving time). In addition,
94 * <code>getCanonicalID</code> can also be used to
95 * normalize a custom time zone ID.
97 * TimeZone is an abstract class representing a time zone. A TimeZone is needed for
98 * Calendar to produce local time for a particular time zone. A TimeZone comprises
99 * three basic pieces of information:
101 * <li>A time zone offset; that, is the number of milliseconds to add or subtract
102 * from a time expressed in terms of GMT to convert it to the same time in that
103 * time zone (without taking daylight savings time into account).</li>
104 * <li>Logic necessary to take daylight savings time into account if daylight savings
105 * time is observed in that time zone (e.g., the days and hours on which daylight
106 * savings time begins and ends).</li>
107 * <li>An ID. This is a text string that uniquely identifies the time zone.</li>
110 * (Only the ID is actually implemented in TimeZone; subclasses of TimeZone may handle
111 * daylight savings time and GMT offset in different ways. Currently we have the following
112 * TimeZone subclasses: RuleBasedTimeZone, SimpleTimeZone, and VTimeZone.)
114 * The TimeZone class contains a static list containing a TimeZone object for every
115 * combination of GMT offset and daylight-savings time rules currently in use in the
116 * world, each with a unique ID. Each ID consists of a region (usually a continent or
117 * ocean) and a city in that region, separated by a slash, (for example, US Pacific
118 * Time is "America/Los_Angeles.") Because older versions of this class used
119 * three- or four-letter abbreviations instead, there is also a table that maps the older
120 * abbreviations to the newer ones (for example, "PST" maps to "America/Los_Angeles").
121 * Anywhere the API requires an ID, you can use either form.
123 * To create a new TimeZone, you call the factory function TimeZone::createTimeZone()
124 * and pass it a time zone ID. You can use the createEnumeration() function to
125 * obtain a list of all the time zone IDs recognized by createTimeZone().
127 * You can also use TimeZone::createDefault() to create a TimeZone. This function uses
128 * platform-specific APIs to produce a TimeZone for the time zone corresponding to
129 * the client's computer's physical location. For example, if you're in Japan (assuming
130 * your machine is set up correctly), TimeZone::createDefault() will return a TimeZone
131 * for Japanese Standard Time ("Asia/Tokyo").
133 class U_I18N_API TimeZone : public UObject {
141 * Returns the "unknown" time zone.
142 * It behaves like the GMT/UTC time zone but has the
143 * <code>UCAL_UNKNOWN_ZONE_ID</code> = "Etc/Unknown".

755 * <p><strong>Note:</strong>The default implementation of

757 * rule changes, for system time zones. With the implementation,
758 * there are time zones that used daylight savings time in the
759 * past, but no longer used currently. For example, Asia/Tokyo has
760 * never used daylight savings time since 1951. Most clients would
761 * expect that this method to return <code>false</code> for such case.
762 * The default implementation of this method returns <code>true</code>
763 * when the time zone uses daylight savings time in the current
764 * (Gregorian) calendar year.
765 * <p>In Java 7, <code>observesDaylightTime()</code> was added in
766 * addition to <code>useDaylightTime()</code>. In Java, <code>useDaylightTime()</code>
767 * only checks if daylight saving time is observed by the last known
768 * rule. This specification might not be what most users would expect
769 * if daylight saving time is currently observed, but not scheduled
770 * in future. In this case, Java's <code>userDaylightTime()</code> returns
771 * <code>false</code>. To resolve the issue, Java 7 added <code>observesDaylightTime()</code>,
772 * which takes the current rule into account. The method <code>observesDaylightTime()</code>
773 * was added in ICU4J for supporting API signature compatibility with JDK.
774 * In general, ICU4C also provides JDK compatible methods, but the current
775 * implementation <code>userDaylightTime()</code> serves the purpose
776 * (takes the current rule into account), <code>observesDaylightTime()</code>
777 * is not added in ICU4C. In addition to <code>useDaylightTime()</code>, ICU4C
778 * <code>BasicTimeZone</code> class (Note that <code>TimeZone::createTimeZone(const UnicodeString &ID)</code>
779 * always returns a <code>BasicTimeZone</code>) provides a series of methods allowing
780 * historic and future time zone rule iteration, so you can check if daylight saving
781 * time is observed or not within a given period.
