[threeten-dev] Midnight at the end of day

[Rosczak, Jan]

Hello,

we are planning to use Java 8 in one of our projects when it will be released next year. We are especially looking forward to the new Date Time API. There is one issue so, I know it maybe have been asked before, but I could not find anything recent on that topic. So here it goes.

In our company we have the requirement to have a date and time that represent midnight at the end of day, not at the start of the next day, so something like 2013-11-12T24:00. The ISO 8601 norm says that for the field hour, the valid values are 00-24, where 24 is only used to denote midnight at the end of a calendar day.

I hoped I could express this somehow with the new Date Time API, but was not able to find a solution, because the valid range for the hour field is 00-23. Is there something I can do or do I have to implement may one Time class?

Thanks and regards
