joda-time:joda-time - J2ObjC continuous build #14

Closed brunobowden closed 8 years ago

brunobowden commented 8 years ago

Quality replacement for the Java date and time classes.

@jodastephen, @broneill - FYI for you both. This is to support translation of your Java library to Objective-C such that it can be used on iOS. This bug is specifically for testing this as part of a continuous build using Google's J2ObjC conversion tool.

@advayDev1 FYI

Depends on and is blocked by #25

broneill commented 8 years ago

I've not been involved in the Joda project for many years now. The new time package in Java 8 is better than Joda-Time, and I think you should model it instead. I think Stephen would agree with you.

Thanks @broneill ; it is the case that some of our users still use Java 7, so we still have demand for Joda-Time.

Java 8 isn't supported on Android yet. Even when that happens, many developers will still need to develop for older Android devices stuck on Java 7. So this'll be useful for some time to come.
