To implement a use case of a Java application running in Kubernetes, I needed to be able to dynamically set the time offset from outside the Java process.
Every time
System.currentTimeMillis()is called, the offset is now read from the file specified in the Java propertyfaketime.offset.fileinstead of directly from the propertyfaketime.offset.seconds. If the property is not set, the offset infaketime.offset.secondsis used as before.This enables one to dynamically set the offset in a Kubernetes ConfigMap object, which is mounted in the Java application container as a file.
