How to get the current time in GMT?

I've seen countless examples online, but I can't understand why it does not work:

SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
String eventDateString;

Calendar calendar = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT")); // GMT will always be supported by getTimeZone
eventDateString = dateFormat.format(calendar.getTime());
System.out.println(eventDateString);

Calendar calendarLocal = Calendar.getInstance();
eventDateString = dateFormat.format(calendarLocal.getTime());
System.out.println(eventDateString);

This translates into this output:

2009-03-10 19:58:06
2009-03-10 19:58:06

I expect the premiera either 4 hours in advance since the device that I use is estimated

Did I miss something on the functioning of these methods?

Thank you.

I'm a big * beep *...

DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'"); //e.g. 2008-06-03T12:15:03Z        Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));        c.setTime(new Date(System.currentTimeMillis())); //now        String formattedDate = dateFormat.format(c, new StringBuffer(), null).toString(); //formatted in UTC/GMT time        System.out.println(formattedDate);

  • write an analytical function custom to get the current time

    Hi all
    I want to write a custom analytical function to get to the current week.
    for example if it is today, January 13, 2012 then during week 2 the analytical function must return true.

    I have an existing analytical function for the passage of time, written by someone else as below.

    Decode (connect_by_root (LASTDATE) - trunc (sysdate),-1, 1, 0)

    here last date it receives from the other query. This function returns me if the current date is passed or not.

    So can someone please tell me how to write a custom function to get the current week.


    Thank you

    I have an existing analytical function for the passage of time, written by someone else as below.
    Decode (connect_by_root (LASTDATE) - trunc (sysdate),-1, 1, 0)

    Is not an analytic function.

    I guess (because we don't know) that you need a function analytical, because you have a start date, but no end date and so an analysis as an ADVANCE or a DELAY can help you get the end_date.

    If so, then maybe this shows you in the right direction.
    I limited to 5 weeks to keep the short output.
    I chose a start date of January 3, 2012.

  • How to get the current location in the event thread?

    Hello!

    Can U pls tell me how to get the location where the thread object, it is in method() execution of MenuItem. PLS, tell me-

    I also used the different thread for the getLocation() method. But I do not have the coords of geo location...

    PLS, suggest me-

    My code is as below:

        private MenuItem getGeoCodes=new MenuItem("Current Coords",100,1){
    
                                 public void run(){
                                     double[] coords=getLocationCoords();
                                     this.wait(12000);
                                     System.out.println("Latitude :"+coords[0]+" "+"Longitude:"+coords[1]);
                                 }
    
                     };
    
        private double[] getLocationCoords(){
            Criteria criteria = new Criteria();
            criteria.setHorizontalAccuracy(500);
            criteria.setVerticalAccuracy(500);
            LocationProvider locationProvider = LocationProvider.getInstance(criteria);
            Location location=null;
            new Thread(){
               public void run(){
                       locationProvider.getLocation(60);
               }
            }
            QualifiedCoordinates qualifiedCoordinates=location.getQualifiedCoordinates();
            double[] coords=new double[]{qualifiedCoordinates.getLatitude(),qualifiedCoordinates.getLongitude()}   ;
             return coords;
        }
    

    But I myself NullPointerException. Coordinates get successfully, if we run the location capability in different function, rather than the event thread.

    Please help me-

    In my opinion, which may be too complicate things a bit. I think he's trying to do is register a LocationListener with his object of LocationProvider. Callback methods, send a message to the UI event thread as follows (no need to spawn threads):

    UiApplication.getUiApplication().invokeLater( new Runnable() {
        public void run()
        {
            // This code will execute on the event thread
        }
    });
    

    EDIT: If your interval is short, you can consider implementing this executable as a class and store an instance in the front.

  • How to report the current time on the ESX host in to a csv file with the following

    Hello guys

    I have the script next where I make the required details except the current time on the ESX host. Anyone can guide me please.

    {foreach ($esx to $vmhosts)
    $hostVC = $vcenter
    $hostCluster = $esx. Parent.Name
    $hostHost = $esx. Name
    $ntp = $esx | Get-VMHostNtpServer
    $hostNTP = "$ntp".

    }

    I want to integrate the following for loop of the above for loop and ge the output in a single table.

    foreach ($esxcli in get-vmhost | get-esxcli) {"" |} {Select @{n = "Time"; e = {$esxcli.system.time.get ()}}, @{n = "hostname"; e = {$esxcli.system.hostname.get (.hostname)}}}

    Add-Content - Path '$hostVC, $hostCluster, $hostHost, $hostNTP, $hostTime' $hostInvFile - $ hostTime is where I want to get my host right now.

    I'm vcenter, esx name, name of the cluster, host of the ntp server address, but I need the host thus present.

    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you

    vKar

    Try changing the line where the script retrieves the VMHost to this

    $vmhosts = get-VMHost-State connected. Name sort

    This way the script will be only to ESXi nodes that are "connected".

  • How to get the current date to display in the Spanish format.

    The coding is in format Adobe Acrobat, DC. The coding I have for the English today's date is:

    var d = new Date();

    sDate = util.printd var ("dd mmmm yyyy", d);

    this.getField("Text1").value = sDate;

    How can I get the current date displayed in this Spanish format: 07 December 2015

    Thank you

    It's a little complicated... But this code should do the trick:

    util.printd("dd", d) + " de " + util.printd("date(es){MMMM}", d, true) + " de " + util.printd("yyyy", d);
    

    Edit: Fixed the code... Did not notice the 'of' second before.

  • How to get the current value of db in backing bean

    Hello

    I use jdeveloper 11.1.2.3.0

    I would like to know how I could access the old value of an attribute in backing bean.
    I know I can get it in terms of EntityImpl with the getPostedAttribute function,
    but as I see that I'm not allowed to access this function in the ViewImpl.
    I get this error:
    Error (151,33): getPostedAttribute (int) has protected access to oracle.jbo.server.EntityImpl.

    Could you help her?
    What is the right way to get the current value on db in backing bean?

    Thank you very much!

    You can add a transitional attribute to the entity object to hold the old value of the desired attribute, then you can add this attribute to the view object.

  • How to get the current folio of inside a folio with reading sdk

    Hello

    I am currently trying to get the current folio and its value of filter in the reading sdk (custom Navigation).

    Section 2.31 there is a "ReadingService" with "currentfolio" (Adobe DPS - reading SDK 2.31: adobeDPS-ReadingService: JsDoc reference).

    However, this Service has disappeared to 2.32. "Folio", itself is difficult.

    My question is: How can I get the current folio and its filter?

    I tried with adobeDPS.Folio / adobeDPS.Folio () filter and so on but nowhere.

  • How to get the current zoom value in the ID?

    Is there a way that can get the current zoom value in InDesign?

    ZoomValue.png

    Thank you very much.

    You could glance at the widget shown in your screenshot, at least when frame MDI (?) is displayed.

    The title of the window to kLayoutPresentationBoss, IID_IDOCUMENTPRESENTATION also reflects the value.

    Probably the best would be the kLayoutWidgetBoss, IID_IPANORAMA, GetXScaleFactor() - and GetYScaleFactor()!

    I'm just trying to imagine how a document would look like if these differ from each other ;-) and, better yet, how to achieve this objective in the user interface.

    BTW, only one notification is kDocWorkspaceBoss, Protocol IID_IWINDOW, order kUpdateDocumentUIStateCmdBoss.

    Another: there's a kDocWindowTitleModifyService...

    Edit: I note once again of course IID_IPANORAMA, observable of the subject kLayoutWidgetBoss.

    Hello

    Here's a way to display the status of children sub-process engendered by a process parent process creation activity. In this sense, the process id of the subprocedure is "ChildProcess. The id of the activity of creating processes in the parent process that causes the work item instance in the child process called 'SpawnChildren '. This logic is performed from inside the process parent in an activity downstream process creation activity, called "SpawnChildren".

    Display statements have been added just to see you return values (do) their leash not when going into production.

    display "Children: " + children + "\nKeys: " + children.keys + "\nLength: " + length(children) +

    if children["SpawnChildren"] = null or children["SpawnChildren"] = "" then
