Hi Steve,
thanks a lot for your answer.
Took me a while to verify it, but this now works and give me way to propose
a method that allows identical replacement:
public void DateMidnightTest() {
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.setTime(DateUtil.stringToDate("01/01/2009"));
// On definit l'horaire a 23h59hmin59
cal.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY, 23);
cal.set(Calendar.MINUTE, 59);
cal.set(Calendar.SECOND, 59);
assertTrue(cal.getTime().equals(new
DateMidnight(2009,1,2).toDateTime().minusSeconds(1).toDate()));
}
Seems like toDateTime() was the missing part.
It's important that I can provide first a method that is equivalent to the
existing.
Then I should be able to move to something more simple where Time is not
taken into account.
cheers,
-jean
