timezone conversion

[sd5008]

 i have a Field in my report of type 'java.util.Timestamp'. I need to display the date in the respective timezone of the user.

i am passing REPORT_TIME_ZONE as parameter from my controller as

 

LoggedUser user = (User)request.getSession().getAttribute("loggeduser");
           
            usertimezone    = user.getTimezone();

Map model=new HashMap();

model.put("REPORT_TIME_ZONE",usertimezone);

 

in my report that is the jrxml file i use

<parameter name="DateFormatter" class="java.text.DateFormat" isForPrompting="false">

    <defaultValueExpression>$P{REPORT_FORMAT_FACTORY}.createDateFormat("MMM dd, yyyy HH:mm", null, $P{REPORT_TIME_ZONE})</defaultValueExpression>

</parameter>

and in my testfield expression i use

<textFieldExpression>$P{DateFormatter}.format($F{WORK_PLAN_CREATED_TS})</textFieldExpression>

 

my end result is that i am not able to convert the date into respective timezone. please do the needfull
