I need to convert a unix timestamp to a date object.

Timestamp value

Answer 1

Sometimes you need to work with adjustments.

Don't use cast to long! Use nanoadjustment.

For example, using Oanda Java API for trading you can get datetime as UNIX format.

For example: 1592523410.590566943

    System.out.println("instant with nano = " + Instant.ofEpochSecond(1592523410, 590566943));
    System.out.println("instant = " + Instant.ofEpochSecond(1592523410));

you get:

instant with nano = 2020-06-18T23:36:50.590566943Z
instant = 2020-06-18T23:36:50Z

Also, use:

 Date date = Date.from( Instant.ofEpochSecond(1592523410, 590566943) );
