java.util.Date, TimeZone and RPC Serialization
I have an issue where, when a java.util.Date is sent via an RPC from another time zone than the server, the date changes on the server due to the server interpreting the long sent via RPC from the client into its own time zone. I am able to get past this issue by implementing the solution provided here: http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit/browse_thread/thread/fd7b80de11507908/43363d713487a0f2?lnk=gst&q=date+serialize#43363d713487a0f2 The problem with this solution is it affects both client and server. I'd like to ask, if anyone knows of a way how we could apply this change without affecting the client as I'd prefer making only server- side changes and not change the large number of client-side files. I'd highly appreciate any related information. Regards. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.

Re: java.util.Date, TimeZone and RPC Serialization
thakker, I have the same issue as well, we are live in production and found this issue for users accessing from a different timezone , we pushed in a temp fix locally by overriding the default behavior of GWT Date, the solution provided in the below link, and it worked. http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Web-Toolkit/browse_thread/thread/fd7b80de11507908/43363d713487a0f2?lnk=gst&q=date+serialize#43363d713487a0f2 But We would like to know if there are any other fix or recommendations which could be implemented without affecting the client files, Any recommendation would be highly appreciated.

Re: java.util.Date, TimeZone and RPC Serialization
Why don't you just use Date.getTime() and Calendar.setTimeInMillis() on the serverside?
