Hi Yugandhar,

Are you using UDF by referring to the blog of Eng, then can you please cross check whether you have imported the joda libraries correctly or not into your ESR.

Also, please share the code for which you are getting the error.

please find the below code which used

public String convertTimeZone(String Input_Timestamp, String Timestamp_format, String From_Timezone, String To_Timezone, Container container) throws StreamTransformationException{

LibraryMethod(title="convertTimeZone", description="Convert input time from one timezone to another", category="FL_DateTime", type=ExecutionType.SINGLE_VALUE)

public String convertTimeZone ( 

  Argument(title="Input_Timestamp")  String timestamp, 

  Parameter(title="Timestamp_format")  String format, 

  Parameter(title="From_Timezone")  String fromTZ, 

  Parameter(title="To_Timezone")  String toTZ, 

   Container container)

throws StreamTransformationException

{ 

  DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormat.forPattern(format); 

  DateTimeZone originalTZ = DateTimeZone.forID(fromTZ); 

  DateTime fromDateTime = new DateTime(DateTime.parse(timestamp, formatter), originalTZ); 

  DateTime toDateTime = fromDateTime.withZone(DateTimeZone.forID(toTZ)); 

  return formatter.print(toDateTime); 

}

code seems to be fine.

Did you follow these steps

Prerequisite:

Download the library files for Joda-Time from Joda-Time's repository.

Import JAR file into an Imported Archive object.

Add Imported Archive in Archives Used section of Message Mapping or Function Library.

Hi,

Seems that Issue with the function name/variable names that you have given. Please assign as convertTimeZone.

Also needs to add library files of Joda-times which is different with standard conversion.

Please also try with below logic:

<Library def><import java.util/text.*;>

Calendar timeDef = new GregorianCalendar();

int a1 =  DateFormat.SHORT;

int b1 =  DateFormat.SHORT;

String dtEST = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(a1,b1).format(timeDef.getTime())+" EST"; 

time.setTimeInMillis(timeDef.getTimeInMillis()- 60*60*3000);

String dtPST = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(a1,b1).format(timeDef.getTime())+" PST";

System.out.println(dtEST+"\n"+dtPST);
