Mark:

Sorry about that, it is.  I assumed it had been removed since I am not able
to use getRelativeDateTimeString() in the following:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
long dateMin = 60000;
long dateMax = (86400000 * 2);

DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
                          
Date date = df.parse(dateTime);

long when = date.getTime();

int flags = 0;
                         
String finalDateTime = DateUtils.getRelativeDateTimeString(this, (when +
TimeZone.getDefault().getOffset(when)), dateMin, dateMax, flags);

return finalDateTime;
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

So when it was switched over from a Library to a built-in Class, was this
function removed?

Thanks,

I get 28 results, the third of which is the developer.android.com page:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/format/DateUtils.html

That's not a library. That's a class. It's built into Android.
