As we all know, Joda-Time is the most widely used date and time processing library before the release of Java 8. To address the shortcomings of the older java.util.Date and java.util.Calendar Java 8 introduced new APIs for Date and Time.
As we all know, Joda-Time is the most widely used date and time processing library before the release of Java 8. To address the shortcomings of the older java.util.Date and java.util.Calendar Java 8 introduced new APIs for Date and Time.
So, it’s about time our projects make a switch to using Java 8 new APIs. The process should be easy but not always. So, having Utils class that can do the work for you will be helpful and your team can do the migration based on its priorities.
You should be able to use this Utility (JodaToJavaDateUtils) class code below to leverage your needs based on your projects. Also make sure to check out test (JodaToJavaDateUtilsTest) class as well.
Utility Class below.
/**
