Groovy DateTime Format unexpected output
The below code doesn't return the expected output. What's wrong with it?
def a = new Test(new Date());
println a.getLogFormatDate()
class Test
{
String _dateTime;
static final String _logDateFormat = "E MMM dd HH:mm:ss zzz yyyy";
static final String _timeZoneUTC = "UTC";
Test(Date dateTime)
{
_dateTime = dateTime;
}
public String getLogFormatDate()
{
return _dateTime.format(_logDateFormat, TimeZone.getTimeZone(_timeZoneUTC));
}
}
Expected Output:
Mon Nov 12 14:10:46 UTC 2018
Actual Output:
E MMM dd HH:mm:ss zzz yyyy
datetime groovy

You have defined _dateTime class field with type String, so your getLogFormatDate calls
String.format("E MMM dd HH:mm:ss zzz yyyy", TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"))
while you expect
Date.format("E MMM dd HH:mm:ss zzz yyyy", TimeZone.getTimeZone("UTC"))
to be called.
Define _dateTime field as Date and it will works as you expect.
