Approach to convert from org.joda.time.DateTime to java.util.Calendar

Question

Anyone done this and can share? I see an option or two but want to know what others have accomplished.

Answer 1

According to joda-time documentation the preferred method to use is to call this: AbstractDateTime#toCalendar.

Answer 2

in the 2.1 you can use

public static Calendar parseCalendar(DateTime dt){
    return dt.toGregorianCalendar();
}

Answer 3

You can also call AbstractInstant#toDate
