I was surprised when I was using the equals() method of the LocalDate class.
It was not behaving as I would expect.
Take a look at the code below:
DateTimeFormatter dateTimeFormat =
DateTimeFormat.forPattern("yyyyMMdd HH:mm");
Calendar calendar = dateTimeFormat.parseDateTime("20120621
09:00").toCalendar(null);
LocalDate localDate1 = new LocalDate(calendar);
LocalDate localDate2 = new LocalDate(2012,6,21);
System.out.println(localDate1);
System.out.println(localDate2);
System.out.println("equals(): " + localDate1.equals(localDate2));
System.out.println("isEqual(): " + localDate1.isEqual(localDate2));
The output is:
2012-06-21
2012-06-21
equals(): false
isEqual(): true
Why is the equals method comparison false.
Is this not a Joda bug?
P.S. I'm using Joda 2.1
