Convert Local time to UTC and vice versa

ziggy25Nov 1 2008 — edited Nov 3 2008
Hi,

Im working on a program that displays the time in LOCAL TIME or UTC depending on what the user wants.

The problem i have is i dont really understand the difference between localtime, UTC, GMT etc. This is proving to be really difficult to do any work on it.

Could anyone give me some guidelines or refer me to usefull tutorials that i can look at. Also is it possible to do this in Java?

Thanks
