Android Java - Joda Date is slow in Eclipse/Emulator -

Question

I am trying to find a set of date functions. Looks like the Joda

http://www.joda.org/joda-time/

Does everything I need, but when I call a simple

DateTime dt = new DateTime();

it hangs the Eclipse or Emulator for about 15 seconds.

I must be doing something wrong as I haven't found anyone else complaining about it being slow.

Short of the Joda jar anyone had a datediff() code sample?

Answer 1

I can confirm this in version 1, 1.5 and 1.62 ... I got bored after that and instead used Date4J which seems to be working perfectly and meets my needs!
