DateTime - convert to EDT
Hello. In a Trigger, I want to take a datetime field and convert it to
Eastern Daylight Time (always EDT - no matter what the time zone of the
current user is). I've tried using the format() method and passing the
time zone that i want, but it always converts to GMT. Is there a way to convert a Datetime object from one timezone to another?
Thanks
Chris

string s = system.now().format('Z, zz, zzzz', 'America/Los_Angeles');
system.debug(s); // prints: -0700, PDT, Pacific Daylight Time
s = system.now().format('Z, zz, zzzz', 'America/New_York');
system.debug(s); // prints: -0400, EDT, Eastern Daylight Time
The list of all names is in the drop down for setting company business hours -- Setup -> Company or thereabouts.
Here is what I am doing
GetserverTimeStamp
format it into "yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss'
writing to a file
then reading the timestamp from file in a string
then adding to a query with where LastModifiedDate >= timestamp
It is not giving the right records because ServerTimeStamp gives the GMT time.
how would I do that.
I get binding.geUserInfo.GetTimeZone();
like
but how do we convert it to ("yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss'- xx:xx) format
