Roger Whitcomb created PIVOT-1010: ------------------------------------- Summary: Update CalendarDate and Time classes to interact with new java.time classes Key: PIVOT-1010 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-1010 Project: Pivot Issue Type: Improvement Components: core-util Affects Versions: 2.1 Environment: All Reporter: Roger Whitcomb Assignee: Roger Whitcomb Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.1
In Java 8 there are new classes in the "java.time" package that are much better and easier to use than some of the old date/time classes. Now, our CalendarDate and Time classes are reasonably good, and using GregorianCalendar is still robust, but it would make sense (at least) to be able to construct instances of our classes from LocalDate, LocalTime and LocalDateTime, and to construct instances of these new classes from our classes to facilitate interaction with new applications using these Java 8 features. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
