Formatting Dates in JExcel

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Jexcel has an annoying Feature: It exports Dates always as UTC.

They have published some kind of workaround for reading Excelfiles, but it does not work for Writing Excel files.

My workaround:


TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getDefault();
int offset = tz.getOffset(date.getTime());
Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar();
cal.setTime(date);
cal.add(Calendar.MILLISECOND, offset);
DateTime datetime = new DateTime(j,i, cal.getTime());
WritableCellFormat cf = new WritableCellFormat(df);
datetime.setCellFormat(cf);

* Nvidia-Twinview + unity. Solution: Don't use unity
* Migrating .kde from 4.6 to 4.7: So far none, i made a new user
* Booting is hanging for 2minutes if there is no network connection.
Solution: So far none.

Resume: Don't upgrade now
