sethours in NSDateComponents

Question

I'm trying to sethours in NSDateComponents, I wrote the following code

NSCalendar *calendar = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];
NSDateComponents *dateComps = [[NSDateComponents alloc] init];

[dateComps setDay:intDay];
[dateComps setMonth:intMonth];
[dateComps setYear:intYear];
[dateComps setHour:intHoures];
[dateComps setMinute:intMinutes];

NSDate *itemDate;
itemDate = [calendar dateFromComponents:dateComps];

NSLog(@"reminder date: %@", itemDate);

but when I set the hours as 13, it sets it as 11. I want hours in 24 style. Anyone can help me in this issue?

Thanks in Advance.

Time difference in the hours indicate that you might have problem with time zone, you could try to set the timezone for the date, I know NSDateFormatter has timeZone Property,I doubt if NSDateComponents have timeZone property. However you could set the timeZone for calendar

[calendar setTimeZone:[NSTimeZone timeZoneWithName:@"GMT"]];
