Re: [hibernate-dev] HSEARCH Java 8 Date Time
Hi,
What's the motivation for using a different representation in that case?
For the sake of consistency, I'd use milli seconds since 1970-01-01 across
the board. Otherwise it'll be more difficult to compare fields created from
properties of different date types.

Hi,
I started to work on the creation of the bridges for the classes in the
java.time package.
I was wondering if we want to convert the values to long using the existing
approach we have now for java.util.Date.
In Hibernate Search a java.util.Date is converted into a long that
represents the number of milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT
using getTime().
The same value can be obtain from a java.time.LocaDate via:
long epochMilli = date.atStartOfDay( ZoneOffset.UTC
).toInstant().toEpochMilli();
LocalDate has a method that returns the same value expressed in number of
days:
long epochDay = date.toEpochDay();
I would use the second approach
Davide
