Is the Java programming language “Year 2000”-compliant?
See http://www.sun.com/y2000/jumppage-temp/jdk.html JDK 1.1.8_09a is Y2K compliant, as well as 1.1.7_08a. The two Java2 SDKs that have been certified are 1.2.1_03a & 1.2.1_04. The Date class, as you can see from the discussion, contains more than enough resolution to represent dates in this century and the next and the last. The SimpleDateFormat when parsing a 2 digit year could cause problems; see discussion below.
