Committed revision 1813048. > 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 > Labels: datetime > 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)
