What's the best way to convert LocalDate and LocalTime to java.util.date?

Question

I have a org.threeten.bp.LocalDate and a org.threeten.bp.LocalTime and I do need a java.util.date instance. Whats the best way to archieve this. I looked through DateTimeUtils but found no proper solution.

Answer 1

Life can be so easy:

Date date = Date(localDate.year,localDate.monthValue,localDate.dayOfMonth,localTime.hour,localTime.minute, localTime.second)

edit: oh wait.... this is deprecated! So another solution would be better!
