Time conversion to 24hr format

[JagjeetSingh]

Hi,

I was asked to write a script to convert CST time to GMT time. I developed that successfully but now i am asked to convert 12 hour format to 24 hour format in same script. Can you please suggest what changes i can do to achieve this in below script.

var tz = Packages.java.util.TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT");

var sd = new GlideDateTime();
sd.setTZ(tz);
sd.setValue(current.start_date);
variable.inputs.planned_start_date = sd.getDisplayValue().toString();

var ed = new GlideDateTime();
ed.setTZ(tz);
ed.setValue(current.end_date);
variable.inputs.planned_end_date = ed.getDisplayValue().toString();

Please use class- java.text.SimpleDateFormat

The format string consists of the following abbreviations.

Time format

Field	Full form	Short form
Hour (1-12)	hh (2 digits)	h (1 or 2 digits)
Hour (0-23)	HH (2 digits)	H (1 or 2 digits)
Minute	mm (2 digits)	m (1 or 2 digits)
Second	ss (2 digits)	s (1 or 2 digits)

Try script below:

var tz = Packages.java.util.TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT");

var sd = new GlideDateTime();
sd.setTZ(tz);
sd.setValue(current.start_date);
var sdDate = sd.getLocalDate();
var sdTime = sd.getLocalTime();
variable.inputs.planned_start_date =sdDate + " " + sdTime.getFormat("HH:mm:ss");

var ed = new GlideDateTime();
ed.setTZ(tz);
ed.setValue(current.end_date);

var edDate = sd.getLocalDate();
var edTime = sd.getLocalTime();

variable.inputs.planned_end_date = edDate + " " + edTime.getFormat("HH:mm:ss");
