TimeZone.getTimeZone(“CST”) returns GMT

I\'m converting time from CST to local time but getTimeZone doesn\'t seem to work properly.

    String cstTime = \"2013-06-21 14:00:00\";

Answer 1

You can use "CST6CDT" Timezone it will automatically provide you the correct time when the Central Daylight Time (CDT) switched back to CST or vice versa.
