/**
*
* <code>TimeZone</code> represents a time zone offset, and also figures out daylight
* savings.
*
* <p>
* Typically, you get a <code>TimeZone</code> using <code>createDefault</code>
* which creates a <code>TimeZone</code> based on the time zone where the program
* is running. For example, for a program running in Japan, <code>createDefault</code>
* creates a <code>TimeZone</code> object based on Japanese Standard Time.
*
* <p>
* You can also get a <code>TimeZone</code> using <code>createTimeZone</code> along
* with a time zone ID. For instance, the time zone ID for the US Pacific
* Time zone is "America/Los_Angeles". So, you can get a Pacific Time <code>TimeZone</code> object
* with:
* \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
* <pre>
* TimeZone *tz = TimeZone::createTimeZone("America/Los_Angeles");
* </pre>
* \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
* You can use <code>getAvailableIDs</code> method to iterate through
* all the supported time zone IDs. You can then choose a
* supported ID to get a <code>TimeZone</code>.
* If the time zone you want is not represented by one of the
* supported IDs, then you can create a custom time zone ID with
* the following syntax:
*
* \htmlonly<blockquote>\endhtmlonly
* <pre>
* GMT[+|-]hh[[:]mm]
* </pre>
* \htmlonly</blockquote>\endhtmlonly
*
* For example, you might specify GMT+14:00 as a custom
* time zone ID. The <code>TimeZone</code> that is returned
* when you specify a custom time zone ID does not include
* daylight savings time.
*
* TimeZone is an abstract class representing a time zone. A TimeZone is needed for
* Calendar to produce local time for a particular time zone. A TimeZone comprises
* three basic pieces of information:
* <ul>
* <li>A time zone offset; that, is the number of milliseconds to add or subtract
* from a time expressed in terms of GMT to convert it to the same time in that
* time zone (without taking daylight savings time into account).</li>
* <li>Logic necessary to take daylight savings time into account if daylight savings
* time is observed in that time zone (e.g., the days and hours on which daylight
* savings time begins and ends).</li>
* <li>An ID. This is a text string that uniquely identifies the time zone.</li>
* </ul>
*
* (Only the ID is actually implemented in TimeZone; subclasses of TimeZone may handle
* daylight savings time and GMT offset in different ways. Currently we only have one
* TimeZone subclass: SimpleTimeZone.)
* <P>
* The TimeZone class contains a static list containing a TimeZone object for every
* combination of GMT offset and daylight-savings time rules currently in use in the
* world, each with a unique ID. Each ID consists of a region (usually a continent or
* ocean) and a city in that region, separated by a slash, (for example, US Pacific
* Time is "America/Los_Angeles.") Because older versions of this class used
* three- or four-letter abbreviations instead, there is also a table that maps the older
* abbreviations to the newer ones (for example, "PST" maps to "America/Los_Angeles").
* Anywhere the API requires an ID, you can use either form.
* <P>
* To create a new TimeZone, you call the factory function TimeZone::createTimeZone()
* and pass it a time zone ID. You can use the createEnumeration() function to
* obtain a list of all the time zone IDs recognized by createTimeZone().
* <P>
* You can also use TimeZone::createDefault() to create a TimeZone. This function uses
* platform-specific APIs to produce a TimeZone for the time zone corresponding to
* the client's computer's physical location. For example, if you're in Japan (assuming
* your machine is set up correctly), TimeZone::createDefault() will return a TimeZone
* for Japanese Standard Time ("Asia/Tokyo").
