timezone package call in scoped application

Hi All,

Need help/pointer to write script in better way —

Requirement — Custom_table 1 has fields u_date_time and u_timezone on form which stores date/time & timezone value ('America/New_York' )respectively

Question — In scoped application we need to convert time stored in   field u_date_time to specific timezone using u_timezone field to display in certain format in script/email template.

u_date_time   in GMT -   2017-01-08 21:00:00 //User profile in GMT

u_timezone - America/New_York'

Expected results   -   2017-01-08 16 :00:00 EST

Please note that we are not looking timezone based on user session   so cannot use gs.getSession().getTimeZone()   Also setTZ() and Packages.java.util.TimeZone.getTimeZone('America/New_York');   does not work in scoped app

As a workaround we can create global script include and call from scope

Please share if you have any scoped script which meet requirement
