Thank you so much for your interest and response.
I tried to implement what you suggested.
Calendar calTest = new GregorianCalendar(TimeZone.getDefault());
calTest.setTime(new
Date(entry.getTimes().get(0).getStartTime().getValue()));
System.out.println(TimeZone.getDefault().toString()); returns
sun.util.calendar.ZoneInfo[id="America/New_York",offset=-18000000,dstSavings=3600000,useDaylight=true,transitions=235,lastRule=java.util.SimpleTimeZone[id=America/New_York,offset=-18000000,dstSavings=3600000,useDaylight=true,startYear=0,startMode=3,startMonth=2,startDay=8,startDayOfWeek=1,startTime=7200000,startTimeMode=0,endMode=3,endMonth=10,endDay=1,endDayOfWeek=1,endTime=7200000,endTimeMode=0]]
The following shows that the correct date is returned from toUIString Aug
29th but even with the timezone constructor I am getting a date of Aug 28th,
a day early
entry.getTimes().get(0).getStartTime().toUiString() is 2010-08-29
tz shift = null
temp.format(new Date(entry.getTimes().get(0).getStartTime().getValue()
August28, 2010
Gregorian calTest.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH) 28
Since I know I need the toUIString date (from the online calendar itself) I
am doing this:
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
dt = sdf.parse(entry.getTimes().get(0).getStartTime().toUiString());
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.setTime(dt);
This works , but really want to know why the date from value isnt working.
Any more ideas
Thanks,
Dave
