title: Converting java.sql.Date to java.util.Date
body: <p>What's the simplest way to convert a java.sql.Date object to a java.util.Date while retaining the timestamp?</p>
  
  <p>I tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code>java.util.Date newDate = new Date(result.getDate("VALUEDATE").getTime());
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>with no luck. It's still only storing the date portion into the variable.</p>
