How can I truncate the time zone from a Date object without using String?

Does anyone know how to truncate the time zone portion of a Date object and maintain the object as Date, NOT String?
I just need the date, i.e., 05/02/2008 as a Date.
Thanks.

Although you haven't said so, I expect you must be having some problem with that?
My wild guess: the server is creating a Date object and setting its time component to zero (midnight). Of course since Date doesn't have a timezone, that would be midnight in the server's timezone. Then you are interpreting that date as if it were in your timezone, and since you are west of the server, it appears to be 11 PM or 9 PM or something on the day before.
What we do is to send our timezone to the server and tell the server to use it when creating the Date object. Alternatively, when formatting the Date object you could use a SimpleDateFormat with the server's timezone applied. There are no doubt other solutions that could be provided if we had a description of your problem.

  • How can I change the time zone for a calendar entry with iOS 7?

    I want to make a new entry in my calendar (iOS 7) using a different time zone as the one I'm located in. There isn't any option to choose the time zone like there is in OS X.
    I know I can switch off the option to automatically change the time zone in the preference pane of Mail, Contacts and Calendar to get the option in calendar but I want to use this automatic switch.
    Is there any option to change the time zone of a calendar entry without loosing this automatic switch?

    Got it!
    In your backing file you'll need the following in your handlePostbackData method:
    BookBackingContext bookCtx = BookBackingContext.getBookBackingContext(arg0);
    bookCtx.setupPageChangeEvent("PageLabel");

  • How can I change the time zone while not changing the time

    Let me preface this by saying I know this may seem tiddling to many but it is somthing I am rather obsessive about.
    I took many photos while I was in Los Angeles.  I had changed my camera's clock and the clock in the MacBook Pro to Pacific Standard Time and my iPhone automatically did the same thing. When I loaded photos into Aperture on my MacBook Pro the time information was all correct, all photos tagged in PST.  I had some photos I took on my last day that I did not load into Aperture until I got home to Denver.  When I loaded these images into Aperture they still have the correct time that they were shot but now show as being taken on Mountain Standard Time.  If I change the time zone in Aperture then the image time is also adjusted to be one hour earlier.
    Is there any way I can change the time zone in Aperture while leaving the actual image time alone?

    Hello Mark,
    Aperture will display the "Date created" with respect to the time zone your system is set to, but the "Date" using the time zone the image was taken in.
    You can adjustthe Time Zone for individual images either on import or afterwards using batch change:
    Select the images you want to adjust, then select "Metadata -> Batch Change" from the Aperture Application menu:
    Click: Adjust Time Zone
    Set the Camera's Time Zone to the Time zone you set your camera to when you took the images, and the Actual Time Zone to the zone you want Aperture to use to display the date.
    Regards
    Léonie
    P.S:
    This works with most cameras, but there seems to be a bug with canon cameras when importing directly from the camera. Frank Caggiano recently started a thread, but right now I cannot find the link.

  • How can I measure the time between each two successive rising edges ,using Digital Input ?

    Hello
    I'm trying two measure the time in seconds between each two successive rising edges on a digital input .
    Till now I have managed to detect the rising edge ,increment a counter with each rising edge ,and snap the time at which the rising edge happenned
    all I need now is to subtract the current rising edge time from the previous rising edge time in order to calculate (T) which can be 1/frequency and display it in realtime to the user.
    but I don't know how to do this
    Can somebody please help me !!!

    Counter without time.vi ‏11 KB

    Woah!  
    Sorry Apok, but your code is becoming way too complicated/messy. I don't think that all of those shift registers or boolean conversion/operators are needed at all.
    If you want to measure the timing between two button presses then this is a different (much less complicated) way. It simply records the timing of the button press into a shift register then compares the two.
    Spoiler (Highlight to read)
    Of course this is a very quick and basic solution just to show you that it can be much simpler than you are making it (remember to use the mechanical actions of the buttons to get the behaviour you want).
    A better way would be to use an event structure looking at value changes of the buttons to determine the timings between clicks.

  • How can I get the context-parm from a web.xml file using struts?

    Hello:
    I need get the context-param from the web.xml file of my web project using struts. I want configurate the jdbc datasource connection pooling here. For example:
    <context-param>
    <param-name>datasource</param-name>
    <param-value>jdbc/formacion</param-value>
    <description>Jdbc datasource</description>
    </context-param>
    and then from any Action class get this parameter.
    Similar using a simple server can be:
    /** Initiates new XServlet */
    public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException {
              for (Enumeration e = config.getInitParameterNames(); e.hasMoreElements();) {
                   System.out.println(e.nextElement());
              super.init(config);
              String str = config.getInitParameter("datasource");
              System.out.println(str);
         public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
              throws ServletException, IOException {
              // res.setContentType( );
              System.out.println("Got post request in XServlet");
              PrintWriter out = res.getWriter();
              out.println("nada");
              out.flush();
              out.close();
    but only this works for init-params, if I use
    <servlet>
         <servlet-name>MyServlet</servlet-name>
         <display-name>MyServlet</display-name>
         <servlet-class>myExamples.servlet.MyServlet</servlet-class>
         <init-param>
         <param-name>datasource</param-name>
         <param-value>jdbc/formacion</param-value>
    </init-param>
    </servlet>
    inside my web.xml. I need something similar, but using struts inside the action class for that I can get the context-params and call my database.
    Thank you

    To get context parameters from your web.xml file you can simply get the ActionServlet object from an implementing action object class. In the perform (or execute) method make the following call.
    ServletContext context = getServlet().getServletContext();
    String tempContextVar =
    context.getInitParameter("<your context param >");

  • How can I copy the Work properties from a single contact to use as a mailing address?

    On several occasions, I've needed to follow an email with a written and mailed paper response.
    The address information is in the contact record, but broken into individual fields.
    Is there a process or plugin to grab this information just as it's displayed on the contact record?
    see example image here: http://thisfile.link/library/tb-contact-address.jpg)

    Thanks for the link - doesn't do what I want. (Image post wasn't working for me this morning. see attached now)
    I want to copy the fully formatted mailing address, in context, from the Contact Record.
    Company
    Street
    City, State Zip
    Either a button, like Map, a Right-Click context menu {Copy Address}, or a main menu choice {Tools/Copy/Contact Address}
    Windows mouse select/copy/paste delivers a single line of text that then has to be reformatted. Not the end of the world, just a PITA, every time.

  • How can I choose the time in WRT54G

    Hi
    Problem:
    How can I choose the time in WRT54G?
    Data:
    WRT54G v5.1, firmware 1.0.9
    Thank you for your attention

    I don't think that you can actually "choose the time" on your router, that is, you cannot set it to an arbitrary time.  The router's clock is set from the internet.
    However, you can choose your "time zone" and whether or not to use "daylight saving time".  To do this, open your web browser and point it to address 192.168.1.1.  Enter your router password.  This will take you to your router's web setup page.  You can set the time zone on the bottom of this first page.  Then click "Save Settings".  Exit your browser.  When your router has internet access, it will set itself to the correct time.

  • TS3989 Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    Only some of the photos I have taken on my iPhone appear in the photo stream on my iPad even thou they were taken at the same time. Why is this and how can I import the other photos from my iPhone to my iPad?

    If older photos are missing it may be because photo stream photos are only held in iCloud for 30 days.  After that they are removed from iCloud but will remain (up to 1000 photos) on your device until deleted.  Also, only photos taken after enabling photo stream are added to your photo stream, and only when the camera is closed, your device is connected to wifi and you have at least 20% battery life remaining.
    To transfer the missing photos you can either create a shared photo stream containing them and invite yourself to it (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99), import the photos to your computer and sync them to your iPad, or use an app like PhotoSync to transfer them to your iPad over wifi.
