Class Convert


  • public class Convert
    extends java.lang.Object
    Convert, This class allows the programmer to get or set a date picker date, using some other popular data types besides the default java.time.LocalDate. Example Usage:
     // Create a date picker.
     DatePicker datePicker = new DatePicker();
    
     // Set the date picker date, from a java.util.Date instance, using the default time zone.
     java.util.Date date = new java.util.Date();
     datePicker.convert().setDateWithDefaultZone(date);
    
     // Get the date picker date, as a java.util.Date instance, using the default time zone.
     date = datePicker.convert().getDateWithDefaultZone();
     
    Implementation note: For code clarity, only the java.time packages should use import statements in this class. All other date related data types should be fully qualified in this class.
