public final class DateMidnight
extends BaseDateTime
implements ReadableDateTime, Serializable

DateMidnight defines a date where the time component is fixed at midnight. The class uses a time zone, thus midnight is local unless a UTC time zone is used.

It is important to emphasise that this class represents the time of midnight on any given day. Note that midnight is defined as 00:00, which is at the very start of a day.

This class does not represent a day, but the millisecond instant at midnight. If you need a class that represents the whole day, then an Interval or a LocalDate may be more suitable.

This class uses a Chronology internally. The Chronology determines how the millisecond instant value is converted into the date time fields. The default Chronology is ISOChronology which is the agreed international standard and compatable with the modern Gregorian calendar.

Each individual field can be queried in two ways:

• getDayOfMonth()
• dayOfMonth().get()

• numeric value
• text value
• short text value
• maximum/minimum values
• add/subtract
• set
• rounding

DateMidnight is thread-safe and immutable, provided that the Chronology is as well. All standard Chronology classes supplied are thread-safe and immutable.

If the object implies a chronology (such as GregorianCalendar does), then that chronology will be used, but with the time zone adjusted. Otherwise, ISO is used in the specified time zone. If the specified time zone is null, the default zone is used. Thus if a GregorianCalendar is passed in, the chronology used will be GJ, but if a Date is passed in the chronology will be ISO.

The recognised object types are defined in ConverterManager and include ReadableInstant, String, Calendar and Date. The String formats are described by ISODateTimeFormat.dateTimeParser().

Parameters:

newMillis - the new millis, from 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z

Returns:

a copy of this instant with different millis

withChronology

public DateMidnight withChronology(Chronology newChronology)

Deprecated. 

Returns a copy of this date with a different chronology, potentially changing the day in unexpected ways.

This method creates a new DateMidnight using the midnight millisecond value and the new chronology. If the same or similar chronology is specified, but with a different time zone, the day may change. This occurs because the new DateMidnight rounds down the millisecond value to get to midnight, and the time zone change may result in a rounding down to a different day.

For example, changing time zone from London (+00:00) to Paris (+01:00) will retain the same day, but changing from Paris to London will change the day. (When its midnight in London its the same day in Paris, but when its midnight in Paris its still the previous day in London)

To avoid these unusual effects, use withZoneRetainFields(DateTimeZone) to change time zones.

Parameters:

newChronology - the new chronology

Returns:

a copy of this instant with a different chronology

withZoneRetainFields

public DateMidnight withZoneRetainFields(DateTimeZone newZone)

Deprecated. 

Returns a copy of this date with a different time zone, preserving the day The returned object will have a local time of midnight in the new zone on the same day as the original instant.

Returns:

a copy of this instant with a different time zone

withFields

For example, if the partial is a LocalDate then the date fields would be changed in the returned instance. If the partial is null, then this is returned.

Parameters:

partial - the partial set of fields to apply to this datetime, null ignored

Returns:

a copy of this datetime with a different set of fields

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if any value is invalid

withField

public DateMidnight withField(DateTimeFieldType fieldType,
                              int value)
