/**
 * <code>TimeZone</code> represents a time zone offset, and also figures out daylight
 * savings.
 *
 * <p>
 * Typically, you get a <code>TimeZone</code> using <code>getDefault</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>getDefault</code>
 * creates a <code>TimeZone</code> object based on Japanese Standard Time.
 *
 * <p>
 * You can also get a <code>TimeZone</code> using <code>getTimeZone</code>
 * along with a time zone ID. For instance, the time zone ID for the
 * U.S. Pacific Time zone is "America/Los_Angeles". So, you can get a
 * U.S. Pacific Time <code>TimeZone</code> object with:
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getTimeZone("America/Los_Angeles");
 * </pre></blockquote>
 * You can use the <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 a custom time zone ID can be specified to
 * produce a TimeZone. The syntax of a custom time zone ID is:
 *
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * <a name="CustomID"><i>CustomID:</i></a>
 *         <code>GMT</code> <i>Sign</i> <i>Hours</i> <code>:</code> <i>Minutes</i>
 *         <code>GMT</code> <i>Sign</i> <i>Hours</i> <i>Minutes</i>
 *         <code>GMT</code> <i>Sign</i> <i>Hours</i>
 * <i>Sign:</i> one of
 *         <code>+ -</code>
 * <i>Hours:</i>
 *         <i>Digit</i>
 *         <i>Digit</i> <i>Digit</i>
 * <i>Minutes:</i>
 *         <i>Digit</i> <i>Digit</i>
 * <i>Digit:</i> one of
 *         <code>0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9</code>
 * </pre></blockquote>
 *
 * <i>Hours</i> must be between 0 to 23 and <i>Minutes</i> must be
 * between 00 to 59.  For example, "GMT+10" and "GMT+0010" mean ten
 * hours and ten minutes ahead of GMT, respectively.
 * <p>
 * The format is locale independent and digits must be taken from the
 * Basic Latin block of the Unicode standard. No daylight saving time
 * transition schedule can be specified with a custom time zone ID. If
 * the specified string doesn't match the syntax, <code>"GMT"</code>
 * is used.
 * <p>
 * When creating a <code>TimeZone</code>, the specified custom time
 * zone ID is normalized in the following syntax:
 * <blockquote><pre>
 * <a name="NormalizedCustomID"><i>NormalizedCustomID:</i></a>
 *         <code>GMT</code> <i>Sign</i> <i>TwoDigitHours</i> <code>:</code> <i>Minutes</i>
 * <i>Sign:</i> one of
 *         <code>+ -</code>
 * <i>TwoDigitHours:</i>
 *         <i>Digit</i> <i>Digit</i>
 * <i>Minutes:</i>
 *         <i>Digit</i> <i>Digit</i>
 * <i>Digit:</i> one of
 *         <code>0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9</code>
 * </pre></blockquote>
 * For example, TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT-8").getID() returns "GMT-08:00".
 *
 * <h4>Three-letter time zone IDs</h4>
 * 
 * For compatibility with JDK 1.1.x, some other three-letter time zone IDs
 * (such as "PST", "CTT", "AST") are also supported. However, <strong>their
 * use is deprecated</strong> because the same abbreviation is often used
 * for multiple time zones (for example, "CST" could be U.S. "Central Standard
 * Time" and "China Standard Time"), and the Java platform can then only
 * recognize one of them.
