[android-developers] Re: Time/CountDownTimer: Wrong millis returned for date/time - HELP PLEASE!!

Simple, they caught us all looking. Check out the API docs:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/text/format/Time.html#set%28int,%20int,%20int%29

And notice this part:

month the zero-based month number (in the range [0,11])

Took me a second to find this, but December is 11, not 12 like we think about it.

Tricky Android dev team!

Found part of the problem: My time set line:
TimerSet.set(12, 25, 2011);  // set the date to Dec 25, 2011, 12AM
was backwards - it should have been (25, 12, 2011). Once fixed, the
numbers are a lot closer, but still off by 36 days.
Still looking for help on where I've made a stupid math/code error.
Appreciate the replies!
Best, -Larry
