> Key: LANG-1255
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-1255
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: lang.time.*
> Affects Versions: 3.4
> Reporter: Mike Calmus
> Assignee: Benedikt Ritter
> Fix For: 3.5
>
>
> DateUtils.toCalendar creates a Calendar using .getInstance(). This results in
> a Calendar in the machine's timezone. The Date object passed in may not be in
> that same timezone. Since the getTimezoneOffset method of Date is deprecated
> a new version of toCalendar that accepts a TimeZone would be appropriate:
> {code:java}
> public static Calendar toCalendar(final Date date, final TimeZone tz) {
> final Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance(tz);
> c.setTime(date);
> return c;
> }
> {code}
