java yyyy-mm-ddthh:mm:ssz,日期格式YYYY-MM-DDTHH：MM：SSZ

I assume this should be pretty simple, but could not get it :(.

In this format Z is time zone.

T is long time pattern

How could I get a date in this format except by using

DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;

Console.WriteLine(dt.ToString("yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ssZ"));

in C#

Using UTC

Console.WriteLine(DateTime.UtcNow.ToString("s") + "Z");

2009-11-13T10:39:35Z

The Z is there because

If the time is in UTC, add a 'Z'

directly after the time without a

space. 'Z' is the zone designator for

the zero UTC offset. "09:30 UTC" is

therefore represented as "09:30Z" or

"0930Z". "14:45:15 UTC" would be

"14:45:15Z" or "144515Z".

If you want to include an offset

int hours = TimeZoneInfo.Local.BaseUtcOffset.Hours;

string offset = string.Format("{0}{1}",((hours >0)? "+" :""),hours.ToString("00"));

string isoformat = DateTime.Now.ToString("s") + offset;

Console.WriteLine(isoformat);

Two things to note: + or - is needed after the time but obviously + doesn't show on positive numbers. According to wikipedia the offset can be in +hh format or +hh:mm. I've kept to just hours.

As far as I know, RFC1123 (HTTP date, the "u" formatter) isn't meant to give time zone offsets. All times are intended to be GMT/UTC.
