Detecting System Time Zone

SreramFeb 13 2013 — edited Feb 13 2013

This is in continuation with the following thread.

2064862

I have java code running on a server. When the user changes the timezone in the System (say in Windows Control Panel), I had to automatically detect it and send it to the users. If i try to get the timezone via calendar.getTimezone() or TimeZone.getDefault(), I get the timezone information while the java code is started. I don't find a reliable way to get the timezone from the system control panel.

Is there any method to get the System Timezone in Java?
