Remarks
Gets time zone strings. Use of this method is discouraged; use java.util.TimeZone#getDisplayName() TimeZone.getDisplayName() instead.
The value returned is a two-dimensional array of strings of size <em>n</em> by <em>m</em>, where <em>m</em> is at least 5. Each of the <em>n</em> rows is an entry containing the localized names for a single TimeZone. Each such row contains (with i ranging from 0..<em>n</em>-1): <ul> <li>zoneStrings[i][0] - time zone ID</li> <li>zoneStrings[i][1] - long name of zone in standard time</li> <li>zoneStrings[i][2] - short name of zone in standard time</li> <li>zoneStrings[i][3] - long name of zone in daylight saving time</li> <li>zoneStrings[i][4] - short name of zone in daylight saving time</li> </ul> The zone ID is <em>not</em> localized; it's one of the valid IDs of the java.util.TimeZone TimeZone class that are not custom IDs. All other entries are localized names. If a zone does not implement daylight saving time, the daylight saving time names should not be used.
If #setZoneStrings(String[][]) setZoneStrings has been called on this DateFormatSymbols instance, then the strings provided by that call are returned. Otherwise, the returned array contains names provided by the runtime.
