Mapping java.time.LocalDateTime to java.util.Date

[Nikolaos Galerakis]

Hello all,

I am asking for forgiveness in advance if this is question answered in the documentation somewere. 

I am trying to map an object containing a field  java.util.Date to another object with the same field in java.time.LocalDateTime
and dozer produces this output 

main] ERROR org.dozer.MappingProcessor - Field mapping error -->

  MapId: null

  Type: null

  Source parent class: com.compart.ic.model.Job

  Source field name: dateOfCreation

  Source field type: class java.time.LocalDateTime

  Source field value: 2017-03-15T14:50:56.167

  Dest parent class: com.compart.tec.icc.Job

  Dest field name: dateOfCreation

  Dest field type: java.sql.Date

org.dozer.converters.ConversionException: Unable to determine time in millis of source object

Since for the particular instance I do not really care about millis can I somehow tell dozer to just ignore the millis ? 
Or what is the proper way to tackle this issue ?
