it looks fixed if i change my converter to work like this but it is
annoying to have to annotate every date in the DTOs. is there a global
setting?
public class DateConverter implements Converter<Date> {
private static final String iso8601 = "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss";
@Override
public String toString(final Date instance) {
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(iso8601);
String string = sdf.format(instance);
return string;
}
@Override
public Date fromString(final String text) {
return DatatypeConverter.parseDateTime(text).getTime();
}
}

Using TomEE 7.1.0 Plus
when using jax-rs endpoint the dates in my objects are getting changed
presumably using timezone data.
for example the uk is now in summer time so the date
2019-08-17T00:00:00 becomes 2019-08-16T23:00:00 even when i am not
using the time part of the date.
i am using momentjs and moment(date).utc() is supposed to bring the
date back to utc but that does not work as the json doesn't seem to
include the original date but the recalculated date
i also tried using a date converter like
public class DateConverter implements Converter<Date> {
@Override
public String toString(final Date instance) {
final Calendar cal = GregorianCalendar.getInstance();
cal.setTime(instance);
return DatatypeConverter.printDateTime(cal);
}
@Override
public Date fromString(final String text) {
return DatatypeConverter.parseDateTime(text).getTime();
}
}
but it doesn't make any difference
is there any documentation on this?
