Day-Light saving

http://java.sun.com/developer/technicalArticles/Intl/USDST/

Have a query regarding the information in the above URL.

I am using JDK1.4.2_08 and JDK1.4.2_04 in my application ..

Will my applications have any impacts due to day-Light saving time change ?

Thanks in advance

No, unless you're running your software in Australia or USA or (bunch of other countries whose DST rules have changed or will change soon), which covers a very large user base :-).

In which case you should be running the *latest* update of your version (in your case, 1.4.2_11, I think, but check to be sure).

TimeZone rules keep changing in various countries as legislative bodies love to tinker with that sort of stuff, so you should *always* keep to the latest update for whatever version you choose to run on.
