Event StartDateTime conversion

Hi all

 

How to convert Event StartDateTime into User's Local Timezone. By default the time portion is always transferred in the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) time zone. I need to convert into user's timezone.

Hi all

 

I got it. Through this i have converted Event's StartDateTime UTC into User's local time zone.

 

User us = [Select id,TimeZoneSidKey from User where id=:'005d0000000alSH'];
System.debug('*1us*'+us);
TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getTimeZone(us.TimeZoneSidKey);
Datetime myDate = datetime.newInstance(2013, 7, 1, 13, 00, 0);
System.debug('*1myDate*'+myDate);
system.debug('*1time zone myDate*'+tz.getOffset(myDate));
integer correction = tz.getOffset(myDate);
system.debug('*1correction*'+correction);
DateTime correctedDateTime = myDate.addMinutes(correction / (1000 * 60));
System.debug('*1correctedDateTime: ' +correctedDateTime);
