How can I get the current local wall clock time (in number of millis since 1 Jan 1970) in London? Since my application can run on a server in any location, I think I need to use a TimeZone of "Europe/London". I also need to take Daylight Savings into account i.e. the application should add an hour during the "summer".

I would prefer to use the standard java.util libraries.

Is this correct?

TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/London") ;
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(tz);
return cal.getTime().getTime() + tz.getDSTSavings();

Thanks
