Long To XMLGregorianCalendar and back to Long
- by JD.
I am trying to convert from millisecond time stamp to XMLGregorianCalendar and back, but I seem to be getting wrong results. Am I doing something wrong? It seems I am gaining days.
// Time stamp 01-Jan-0001 00:00:00.000
Long ts = -62135740800000L;
System.out.println(ts);
System.out.println(new Date(ts)); // Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 PST 1 .. Cool!
// to Gregorian Calendar
GregorianCalendar gc = new GregorianCalendar();
gc.setTimeInMillis(ts);
// to XML Gregorian Calendar
XMLGregorianCalendar xc = DatatypeFactory.newInstance().newXMLGregorianCalendar(gc);
// back to GC
GregorianCalendar gc2 = xc.toGregorianCalendar();
// to Timestamp
Long newTs = gc2.getTimeInMillis();
System.out.println(newTs); // -62135568000000 .. uh?
System.out.println(new Date(newTs)); // Mon Jan 03 00:00:00 PST 1 .. where did the extra days come from?
