OData V4: Java 8 DateTime API support by Olingo

    Support types of new Date/Time API

    

    The types of the new Date/Time API can now be used as property values.

    

    The following mappings are now supported

    

    EdmDateTimeOffset

• java.time.Instant
• java.time.ZonedDateTime
• java.util.Calendar
•  java.util.Date
• java.sql.Timestamp
• java.lang.Long

    

    EdmDate

• java.time.LocalDate
• java.sql.Date

    EdmTimeOfDay

• java.time.LocalTime
• java.sql.Time 

    Only these mappings capture the semantics correctly.

    

    For legacy reasons also supported are the following mappings are still

    supported:

    

    EdmDate

• java.util.Calendar (date component in the TZ of the calendar)
• java.util.Date     (date component in UTC)
• java.sql.Timestamp (date component in UTC)
• java.lang.Long     (date component in UTC)  

    EdmTimeOfDay

• java.util.Calendar (time component in the TZ of the calendar)
• java.util.Date     (time component in UTC)
• java.sql.Timestamp (time component in UTC)
• java.lang.Long     (time component in UTC)

    For legacy reasons the default mapping types are unchanged (and remain

    semantically incorrect):

    EdmDate                  -> java.util.Calendar,  java.util.Date, java.sql.Timestamp

    EdmTimeOfDay      -> java.util.Calendar, java.util.Date, java.sql.Timestamp
