   :noindex:

.. java:type:: public class UTCTimeZoneShift extends TimeZone

   Represents the shift, i.e. the time difference between a time zone 'X' and the UTC+0 time zone.

   This is used for (de-)serialization of ISO8601-compliant representations of UTC-relative time zones (e.g. +0100 for CEST)

Constructors
------------
UTCTimeZoneShift
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Methods
-------
equals
^^^^^^

.. java:method:: @Override public boolean equals(Object obj)
   :outertype: UTCTimeZoneShift

getID
^^^^^

.. java:method:: @Override public String getID()
   :outertype: UTCTimeZoneShift

getISO8601Offset
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.. java:method:: public static String getISO8601Offset(TimeZone timezone, long date)
   :outertype: UTCTimeZoneShift

   Generate an ISO 8601 time zone offset string (e.g. +0200) for the given time zone at the given date.

   The date is necessary to decide whether the time zone (e.g. Europe/Berlin) is in the daylight saving regime or not. In winter Europe/Berlin has a +0100 offset, in summer it is +0200.

   :param timezone: - the time zone in question.
   :param date: - the date for which the offset is to be calculated (unix time stamp).
   :return: ISO 8601 time zone offset.
