Andre F de Miranda commented on NIFI-3524:
------------------------------------------
[~pvillard], [~dtorok] - in 2908 we changed a bit how EL works with date, given
that it was setup to be released as part of 1.2 but its behavior is odd (the
NIFI-2908 code disrespects the time zone encoded in the date format) would you
mind if we raise this as a blocker to 1.2.0 so we have solid automatic handling
of Time Zones with a fallback scenario of choosing the TZ when not provided by
the timezone format?
> EL DateTime objects should be TZ aware

> Key: NIFI-3524
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3524
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Andre F de Miranda
> Priority: Critical
>
> As highlighted by NIFI-2908 and subsequent email threads, the use of DateTime
> objects with EL seems to be affected by java.util.Date infamous timezone free
> objects.
> With the shift into Java 8, we should probably refactor EL to use java.time.*
> classes as JSR-310 introduce plenty of TZ awareness to handling of Date and
> Time in Java.
