Not able to serialize ZonedDateTime,PeriodDuration while converting bean to xml

[solsau]

I am using joda time earlier now I have migrated from DateTime(joda) to ZonedDateTime(java.time) also converted Period(joda) to PeriodDuration(java). But as ZonedDateTime and PeriodDuration does not have any constructor So I am getting error while serializing bean to xml.

I want to store dateTime value in millisecond(long) and PeriodDuration value in String in xml using.Please suggest solution

Joda sample code (Working with Joda)

public static byte[] beanToXml(final Object parBean) { ClassLoader threadCL = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(); try { Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(parBean.getClass().getClassLoader());

        ByteArrayOutputStream theBytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        XMLEncoder theEncoder = new XMLEncoder(theBytes);
        theEncoder.setExceptionListener(myExceptionListener);

        theEncoder.setPersistenceDelegate(DateTime.class, new PersistenceDelegate()
        {
            @Override
            protected Expression instantiate(final Object parOldInstance, final Encoder parOut)
            {
                DateTime theDateTime = (DateTime) parOldInstance;
                return new Expression(parOldInstance, theDateTime.getClass(), "new", new Object[]
                {
                    theDateTime.getMillis()
                });
            }
        });

         theEncoder.setPersistenceDelegate(Period.class, new PersistenceDelegate()
        {
            @Override
            protected Expression instantiate(final Object parOldInstance, final Encoder parOut)
            {
                Period thePeriod = (Period) parOldInstance;
                return new Expression(parOldInstance, thePeriod.getClass(), "new", new Object[]
                {
                    thePeriod.toString()
                });
            }
        });

        theEncoder.writeObject(parBean);
        theEncoder.close();
        return theBytes.toByteArray();
    }
    finally
    {
        Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(threadCL);
    }
}

Java.Time sample code

public static byte[] beanToXml(final Object parBean) { ClassLoader threadCL = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader(); try { Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(parBean.getClass().getClassLoader());

        ByteArrayOutputStream theBytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
        XMLEncoder theEncoder = new XMLEncoder(theBytes);
        theEncoder.setExceptionListener(myExceptionListener);

        theEncoder.setPersistenceDelegate(ZonedDateTime.class, new PersistenceDelegate()
        {
            @Override
            protected Expression instantiate(final Object parOldInstance, final Encoder parOut)
            {
                ZonedDateTime theDateTime = (ZonedDateTime) parOldInstance;

                return new Expression(parOldInstance, theDateTime.getClass(), "new", new Object[]
                {
                    theDateTime.toInstant().toEpochMilli()
                });
            }
        });

        theEncoder.setPersistenceDelegate(PeriodDuration.class, new PersistenceDelegate()
        {
            @Override
            protected Expression instantiate(final Object parOldInstance, final Encoder parOut)
            {
                PeriodDuration thePeriod = (PeriodDuration) parOldInstance;
                return new Expression(parOldInstance, thePeriod.getClass(), "new", new Object[]
                {
                    thePeriod.toString()
                });
            }
        });

        theEncoder.writeObject(parBean);
        theEncoder.close();
        return theBytes.toByteArray();
    }
    finally
    {
        Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(threadCL);
    }
}
