App still uses deprecated APIs #380

Open LiliWeiSE opened 7 years ago

Hi,

I just noticed that class android.text.format.Time is used at many places. Eg, line 345 in MonthView.java, line 89 in MonthAdapter, etc.

This class has been deprecated for multiple problems (see: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/format/Time.html)

Although it may not induce problems for now, I think it'd better to use other alternative classes to avoid future bugs.

Thanks!

Yeah, so many issue, great app, too bad it's not developed anymore.

Check out Orgzly, they already merged reminders o I guess I'll jump ship. BTW, you can import these notes in Orgzly, albeit with a caveat that I forget now.

Google recommends using GregorianCalendar https://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/GregorianCalendar instead of android.text.format.Time which we use. A limit of that class is that it can't represent dates after 2038. So replacing Time is important, even more than other deprecated classes used in the codebase
