How to convert DateTime to Date

Question

How can I convert Date to DateTime and vice versa?

E.g.

Date dt = new Date();

Now I want to covert this to DateTime.

Also

DateTime dtim = new DateTime();

Now I want to convert it to Date.

Answer 1

I guess you convert it to UTC via Date.getTime(). And after that, use a constructor/setter on the other object.

Answer 2

Is this JodaTime's DateTime you're talking about? If so, it's dateTime.toDate()

Answer 3

Here is the Javadoc.
