java 1900 1970,在Java中转换1900年之前的时间戳

My Android app communicate with an API which give me the following timestamp : -2209161600. Converted to a date time, it's supposed to be 12-30-1899 00:00:00

The problem is, I tried to convert this timestamp using both the default library, threetenbp, and then jodatime, but I always get the same wrong result, using Europe/Paris timezone : 12-30-1899 00:09:21

Why does that happen ?

EDIT: For example with jodatime

DateTime dt = new DateTime(-2209161600000L, DateTimeZone.forID("Europe/Paris")); // dt: "1899-12-30T00:09:21.000+00:09:21"

... affects date-times before the modern time-zone system was introduced. The time-zone data is obtained from the time-zone database. The database contains information on "Local Mean Time" (LMT) which is the local time that would have been observed at the location following the Sun's movements.

Joda-Time uses the LMT information for all times prior to the first time-zone offset being chosen in a location. ...

In other words, the database does not have entries for that time so it is uses the Local Mean Time (e.g. 0:09:21 for Paris, or -0:14:44 for Madrid 1).

System.out.println(new DateTime(-2209161600000L, DateTimeZone.forID("Europe/Paris")));

System.out.println(new DateTime(-2209161600000L, DateTimeZone.forID("Europe/Madrid")));

will print

1899-12-30T00:09:21.000+00:09:21

1899-12-29T23:45:16.000-00:14:44

Solution: depends what tis time is needed for, if UTC is sufficient, use

new DateTime(-2209161600000L, DateTimeZone.forID("UTC")) // 1899-12-30T00:00:00.000Z

or just the standard java.time classes like

Instant.ofEpochSecond(-2209161600L)

Instant.ofEpochMilli(-2209161600000L)
