So we use Hibernate for Object-relational mapping and we have a Student.java (POJO) and a registrationDate (java.util.date). We save the student object with this date ‘2012-01-05 10:00:00‘ and when we look at the db it looks right as we save it.

The issue is when we get it back from the db (student.getRegistrationDate) instead of returning us the right milliseconds in GMT it returns us a modified milliseconds based on our time zone (our time zone -3, the wrong date is ‘2012-01-05 13:00:00‘ ). Now this is not the the normal behavior of java.util.date because it doesn’t hold time Zone information, so I’m worried if actually Hibernate is adjusting the milliseconds in the date object to match the server local time or it could be something else ?.

Note: I get the date by using date.getTime not with date.ToString.
