I use Joda-time everywhere at the moment - complete joy after fighting
with java.util.Date and java.util.Calendar - and that includes the
places where I am storing dates/times as integers of the forms you
mention above. Joda time's conversion to/from any format is a doddle -
no more messing around with SimpleDateFormatter. Joda time's timezone
manipulations are also a lot more powerful - the library has a
LocalDate, LocalTime and LocalDateTime classes which represent the
date, time and date time minus timezone, which seems to be exactly
what you want?
You're a smooth salesman ;-) Actually, I've just spent several hours
wrestling the "store time as a long solution" to the ground, and I've
not even started on date or datetime yet. I think it's time to break
out joda-time.
You wouldn't happen to have a snippet handy I could drop into my .pom by
any chance would you? If it takes more than 30 seconds to find one,
don't worry, I'm sure I can work it out.
