转换PST格式NSDate的字符串日期

Question

I want to convert @"2016-04-15T15:00:00-07:00" to NSDate in objective C. I am using the NSdateFormatter @"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZZZZZ" but not getting the NSDate

I have to make the string date from server to PST time NSDate

Code :

NSString *strDate = @"2016-04-15T22:00:00Z";

NSDate* ts_utc;

NSDateFormatter* df_utc = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[df_utc setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:@"UTC"]];
[df_utc setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZZZZZ"];

ts_utc = [df_utc dateFromString:strDate];



NSDateFormatter* df_local = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[df_local setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:@"PST"]];
[df_local setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZZZZZ"];

NSString* ts_local_string = [df_local stringFromDate:ts_utc];


NSDate *date = [df_local dateFromString:ts_local_string];

Please suggest.

EDIT

I had the same problem as you and I solved it in that way

NSString *strDate = @"2016-04-15T22:00:00Z";
NSDate* ts_utc;
NSDateFormatter* df_utc = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
[df_utc setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:@"UTC"]];
[df_utc setDateFormat:@"yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ssZZZZZ"];
ts_utc = [df_utc dateFromString:strDate];

NSTimeZone *destinationTimeZone = [NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:@"PST"];
NSInteger timeZoneHourOffset = (NSInteger) ([destinationTimeZone secondsFromGMTForDate:ts_utc] / 3600.0); //geting the time offset between UTC and PST
NSDate *pstDate = [ts_utc dateByAddingTimeInterval:timeZoneHourOffset * 60 * 60]; //applying that offset into ts_utc NSDate

Hope, this will hep you !
