Why java.sql.Time.toString() adds hours?

Follow the simple a example

java.sql.Time t = new Time(1000);
System.out.println("Time t开发者_运维百科 =" + t);

This gives the following output:

Time t = 01:00:01

While I would expect:

Time t = 00:00:01

Could someone tell me how to get rid of the hours portion?

I think you should consider your current TimeZone and check the API of the constructor

I expect you are living somewhere in Europe ;-)

The Time object is normalized, i.e. the timezone of your JVM is taken into account.

Btw, instead of toString() you might want to use DateFormat#format(Date) and set the time zone on the DateFormat instance.
