Sorry if this is already posted. But this is one important thing to note:
DateFormat is not thread safe. Using it in two parallel threads cause corruption of data or runtime exception. Use jodatime where ever you can.

Indeed, this is what the API tells you.
I personally like using Joda-Time as well, its great. I believe the current Java API for dates is somewhat behind its time, hehe.Quote:
Date formats are not synchronized. It is recommended to create separate format instances for each thread. If multiple threads access a format concurrently, it must be synchronized externally.

Thanks for the submission though, I may add a sub forum called 'Tips' for things like this. What do you think?
I think that makes sense. I really appreciate the effort you are putting in maintaining these forums.
