[Android.Runtime.Register("useDaylightTime", "()Z", "GetUseDaylightTimeHandler", ApiSince=24)]
public abstract bool UseDaylightTime ();[<Android.Runtime.Register("useDaylightTime", "()Z", "GetUseDaylightTimeHandler", ApiSince=24)>]
abstract member UseDaylightTime : unit -> boolReturns
true if this time zone uses daylight savings time,
false, otherwise.
<p><strong>Note:</strong>The default implementation of
ICU TimeZone uses the tz database, which supports historic
rule changes, for system time zones. With the implementation,
there are time zones that used daylight savings time in the
past, but no longer used currently. For example, Asia/Tokyo has
never used daylight savings time since 1951. Most clients would
expect that this method to return false for such case.
The default implementation of this method returns true
when the time zone uses daylight savings time in the current
(Gregorian) calendar year.
