date - JAVA : Get a wrong current time -

i try current time :

dateformat dateformat = new simpledateformat("yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss"); calendar cal = calendar.getinstance(); string sendingdateandtime = dateformat.format(cal.gettime()).trim(); 

but gmt time when want system time (and not local time because software executed in several countries can use timezone object).

i need use date library , gregoriancalendar library same wrong result.

many people have same problem solution saw it's put hard code "europe" or else in timezone object.

if can you.

thankssss

---------------------------- update ------------------------------------

i tried use system.currenttimemillis() , give parameter calendar object, gmt time too

how gmt time?

calendar calendar = calendar.getinstance(timezone.gettimezone("gmt")); 

and local computer time?

calendar calendar = calendar.getinstance(); 

dateformat default local time zone. internal format of calendar object number of milliseconds past midnight, january 1, 1970, gmt.

edited add: when run code, local time.

public static void main (string[] args) {     calendar calendar = calendar.getinstance();      dateformat dateformat = new simpledateformat("yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss z");     string sendingdateandtime = dateformat.format(calendar.gettime());     system.out.println(sendingdateandtime); } 

when run code, gmt, although time zone still local time zone.

public static void main (string[] args) {     calendar calendar = calendar.getinstance();     timezone timezone = calendar.gettimezone();     int offsetfromutc = timezone.getoffset(calendar.gettimeinmillis());     calendar.add(calendar.millisecond, -offsetfromutc);      dateformat dateformat = new simpledateformat("yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss z");     string sendingdateandtime = dateformat.format(calendar.gettime());     system.out.println(sendingdateandtime); }
