The method ZoneId.systemDefault() now does not match its specification:
/**
* Gets the system default time-zone.
* <p>
* This queries {@link TimeZone#getDefault()} to find the default time-zone
* and converts it to a {@code ZoneId}. If the system default
time-zone is changed,
* then the result of this method will also change.
*
* @return the zone ID, not null
* @throws DateTimeException if the converted zone ID has an invalid format
* @throws ZoneRulesException if the converted zone region ID cannot be found
*/
public static ZoneId systemDefault() {
return ZoneId.of(TimeZone.getDefault().getID(), SHORT_IDS);
}
This needs to be changed to:
public static ZoneId systemDefault() {
return TimeZone.getDefault().toZoneId();
}
This fix is for a different issue - not the one described in the
8025971 bug report. I recommend opening a new issue. If you're not
going to fix 8025971 (which I think you should) then that needs to be
documented.
