How to convert date/time to local time

[ajith.devendra]

Dear Friend ,

 

I'm using Current Date and Time Composite Elements to print date time on the report , but it prints server time not the local time . My server is in Malaysia and i 'm sitting in UAE. Would anyone pls help me to convert Currentdat and time to local date and time.

Have you tried something like the following? "-4" is the time difference between Malaysia and UAE (sorry if I'm wrong).

java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss").format(java.time.LocalDateTime.now().plusHours(-4))

Thanks Hozawa ,  It worked perfectly .. Appreciated your kind advice .

I have one more question related to this .. I have another country in MiddleEast   (using the Malyasia server)   which is having day light saving . How do we incorporate day light saving to the same expression 

I would appreciate your advice on this .
