Aka “using the right tool for the job”. java.util.Date represents a “specific moment in time” (as an offset from Epoch, and the Y/M/D/H/M/S are computed from there depending on the TZ); if you want a DMY independent from the TZ, then java.util.Date is not “the right tool for the job”. You could use JodaTime's or ThreeTen's LocalDate for instance (they unfortunately don't play well with GWT: existing ports have not been maintained for *years*). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
