Java ZoneOffset

Introduction to Java ZoneOffset

ZoneOffset is a class in Java that denotes the fixed zone offset from the time zone UTC. This class inherits the class ZoneId and implements the interface Comparable.

 

 

This class states three fields:

Valuation, Hadoop, Excel, Mobile Apps, Web Development & many more.

  • MAX:  Maximum supported offset, which is a constant
  • MIN: Minimum supported offset, which is a constant
  • UTC: Offset constant of the time zone for UTC (ID: ‘Z’)

Let us see more about this class in the following sections.

Syntax

Below is the declaration for ZoneOffset class

public final class ZoneOffset extends ZoneId implements TemporalAccessor, TemporalAdjuster, Comparable<ZoneOffset>, Serializable

Methods of Java ZoneOffset

The following are the different methods for the ZoneOffset class that performs different functionalities:

1. adjustInto(Temporaltemp)

The temporal object temp mentioned will be adjusted in order to have offset same as this object.

Code:

import java.time.ZoneOffset;
import java.time.ZonedDateTime;
import java.time.temporal.ChronoField;
import java.time.temporal.TemporalQueries;
public class OffsetZoneEx {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ZonedDateTime dt = ZonedDateTime.now();
System.out.println(dt);
ZoneOffset off = ZoneOffset.of("Z");
dt = (ZonedDateTime)off.adjustInto(dt);
System.out.println(dt);
}
}

Output:

adjustInto(Temporaltemp)

2. compareTo(ZoneOffsetotheroff)

This offset is compared with another one in descending order.

Code:

import java.time.ZoneOffset;
import java.time.ZonedDateTime;
import java.time.temporal.ChronoField;
import java.time.temporal.TemporalQueries;
public class OffsetZoneEx {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ZoneOffset off1 = ZoneOffset.of("Z");
ZoneOffset off2 = ZoneOffset.of("+03:05");
System.out.println("First offset :"+ off1);
System.out.println("Second offset :"+ off2);
int cmp = off1.compareTo(off2);
System.out.println(cmp > 1 ? "Offset 1 is greater" : "Offset 2 is greater");
} }

Output:

compareTo

3. equals(Objectobj)

This offset is checked with another one whether they are equal.

Code:

import java.time.ZoneOffset;
import java.time.ZonedDateTime;
import java.time.temporal.ChronoField;
import java.time.temporal.TemporalQueries;
public class OffsetZoneEx {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ZoneOffset off1 = ZoneOffset.of("Z");
ZoneOffset off2 = ZoneOffset.of("+03:05");
System.out.println("First offset :"+ off1);
System.out.println("Second offset :"+ off2);
boolean cmp = off1.equals(off2);
System.out.println(cmp);    } }

Output:

equals(Objectobj)

4. from(TemporalAccessortemp)
