JDK 1.5

Anyone know of a way to determine the when DST transition occurs for a given
TimeZone ?

The SimpleTimeZone class has methods for setStartRule() and setEndRule(),
but no way to extract when those transition occur.

Seems like it is not possible using the TimeZone classes in the JDK. The
alternative that I have found is:

http://joda-time.sourceforge.net/
