Example

The following example shows the usage of java.util.SimpleTimeZone.clone()

package com.tutorialspoint;

import java.util.*;

public class SimpleTimeZoneDemo {
   public static void main( String args[] ){
      // create simple time zone object 
      SimpleTimeZone stobj = new SimpleTimeZone(720,"India");
      System.out.println("Origial obj: " + stobj);
      
      // clone the object
      Object cloneObj = stobj.clone();
      System.out.println("Clone obj: " + cloneObj);
   }    
}

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result.

Origial obj: java.util.SimpleTimeZone[id=India,offset=720,dstSavings=3600000,
useDaylight=false,startYear=0,startMode=0,startMonth=0,startDay=0,
startDayOfWeek=0,startTime=0,startTimeMode=0,endMode=0,endMonth=0,
endDay=0,endDayOfWeek=0,endTime=0,endTimeMode=0]
