getTimeInMillis() returning the same value for different Time Zones

832069Jan 18 2011 — edited Jan 19 2011

Hi,

The getTimeInMillis() is always returning me the same value for different time zones.
I am required to pass the getTimeInMillis() value or another time zone in the program.
The source code below.

Calendar cal1 = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("EST"));
System.out.println(cal1.getTimeInMillis());

Calendar cal2 = Calendar.getInstance(TimeZone.getTimeZone("IST"));
System.out.println(cal2.getTimeInMillis());

Any help regarding this is appreciated.

Thank you
Achyuth
