I’ve seen a couple of posts on this but not really sure how to go about fixing it. I have some rules based off the Tutorials on Time Based Rules, and have this below in one of them. val long morning_start = (SunmorningNight_Time.state as DateTimeType).calendar.timeInMillis val long day_start = …

You can resolve this by changing .calendar.timeInMillis to .zonedDateTime.toInstant.toEpochMilli Edit: Note that .toEpochSecond * 1000 also works, but loses a bit of accuracy.

I swear I looked through the JavaDocs and I could not find toEpochMilli. Thanks for posting this!

[image] mhilbush: .zonedDateTime.toInstant().toEpochMilli Since zonedDateTime is also deprecated, you will still get the rule validation warning unless you use .getZonedDateTime.toInstant.toEpochMilli. Also, no need for empty () in the DSL. [EDIT: oops… I was wrong. My test included .calenda…

[image] rlkoshak: I swear I looked through the JavaDocs and I could not find toEpochMilli Ditto! I didn’t think to look in Instant… Instant (Java Platform SE 8 ) This will query the system UTC clock to obtain the current instant.

[image] 5iver: Since zonedDateTime is also deprecated, you will still get the rule validation warning Hmm. That’s odd. I’m not getting rule validation warnings on .zonedDateTime.toInstant().toEpochMilli Nm. I just saw your edit.

I am getting the warning The method or field toEpochSecond is undefined for the type DatTimeType in Visual Studio Code. My revised code looks like this if ((now.millis/1000 - (screen_bureau_time.state as DateTimeType).toEpochSecond) > screen_bureau_runtime) Is this ok ?

[image] rswennen: if ((now.millis/1000 - (screen_bureau_time.state as DateTimeType).toEpochSecond) > screen_bureau_runtime) You left out the zonedDateTime method, so like this… if ((now.millis/1000 - (screen_bureau_time.state as DateTimeType).zonedDateTime.toEpochSecond) > screen_bureau_runt…

based on this gist Java 8: Convert JODA DateTime to Java Time.ZonedDateTime · GitHub i would assume that the shortest way from Joda DateTime to OpenHab DateTimeType via Java’s ZonedDate is as follows (where now represents a Joda DateTime) MyDateTimeItem.postUpdate( new DateTimeType( java.time.Z…

I could not get that to work. My rule just fails silently when it gets to that line. I tried replacing the . with :: for the proper way to access static methods and values. This is probably one of those cases where I’m willing to give up some CPU efficiency to gain some easier to read and understan…

The D in getID needs to be capitalized… MyDateTimeItem.postUpdate( new DateTimeType( java.time.ZonedDateTime.ofInstant( java.time.Instant.ofEpochMilli(now.getMillis), java.time.ZoneId.of(now.getZone.getID, java.time.ZoneId.SHORT_IDS) ) ) )

What to use instead in rule? - "The method getCalendar() from the type DateTimeType is deprecated"
