External question sites indicate that users have difficulty converting
between java.util.Date and LocalDate, and also between Instant and
LocalDate/LocalTime. This user difficulty can be resolved with some
additional methods.
Currently, the following methods exist:
ZonedDateTime.ofInstant(Instant, ZoneId);
OffsetDateTime.ofInstant(Instant, ZoneId);
LocalDateTime.ofInstant(Instant, ZoneId);
OffsetTime.ofInstant(Instant, ZoneId);
This enhancement proposes to add the same method to LocalDate and
LocalTime. It can reasonably be argued this was a simple oversight in
the original development.
Diff attached to the JIRA:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8133079
Would also appreciate a reviewer to ensure that the code and tests
pass OK (as opposed to my best efforts on a very dubious
Windows/Eclipse/JDK8 setup)
