Class OutlookDate

java.lang.Object
  com.atlassian.jira.web.util.OutlookDate

public class OutlookDate
extends Object

Formats and parses dates in a variety of formats, including relative dates such as "Today" and "Last Wednesday".

Warning

As of JIRA 4.4, some of the methods in this class have been retrofitted to be time zone-aware. This means that if you call one of these methods, this class will attempt to determine the time zone of the user that is currently logged in, and will display times in that user's time zone if possible. If the user's time zone can not be determined, or if there is no logged in user, the methods will use the JIRA default user time zone. This is different to the previous behaviour, which was to use the JVM default timezone as returned by TimeZone.getDefault() when displaying dates. Please review each method's JavaDoc to determine whether you are affected by this change in behaviour.
