Duncan Jones commented on LANG-654:
-----------------------------------
What's causing the confusion here is that there *is* no Sun Oct 10 00:00:00
CLST 2010. The hour between midnight and 1am simply doesn't exist.The time
changes immediately to Sun Oct 10 01:00:00 CLST 2010. So it's not possible to
truncate the date on this particular date in the Chilean time zone.
In case you're wondering, Java handles this situation by parsing midnight as
1am:
{code:java}
TimeZone.setDefault(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Chile/Continental"));
String dateString = "2010-10-10 00:00:00.0";
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss.S");
Date date = sdf.parse(dateString);
System.out.println(date);
{code}
Output: {{Sun Oct 10 01:00:00 CLST 2010}}.
Consequently, I don't believe this is a bug.

> DateUtils.trucate() does not work properly with daylight saving time.
> e.g.:
> Date: 2010-10-10 05:16:14.0
> DateUtils.truncate(date, Calendar.DATE) : Sun Oct 10 01:00:00 CLST 2010
> Instead of showing 10/10/2010, it shows 10/10/2010 01:00:00
