folks,
i'm sure by now, everyone is aware of the NEW bug found in java's dst
patch.
i need the dumbest, simplest, easiest java code to run on several
different versions of java on several different o/s'es to display the
current time.
my plan is to load this on a server, change the time to 1:59 AM sun, run
the code, wait 2 minutes and run it again. hopefully, the result will
be 3:01 AM sun. i know this is a nasty, brute-force way of testing
this. but, i can't think of any other way. there have been several
tools to test the time by checking the timezone files directly. at this
point, i don't trust ANY of them. i just want to see the current time
via java.
if someone could post this, i'm sure there are a lot of others in the
same boat that i'm in.
tia...
