All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable, Comparable<Date>

public class Time
extends Time

Time with database semantics.

Differs from java.sql.Time when serialized/deserialized in different timezones. Databases don't provide a date and no timezone for a time, i.e. when sent over wire to different locations a time should always remain the same for all timezones. In java.sql.Time, however, the epochal time is serialized which may lead to a different time when deserialized in another timezone. In Time the effective date is serialized as HHMMSSmmm to provide the same semantics as databases do.
