I have a pojo in which I have Map<Date, Object>. When I try to serialize it using GSON, the date is serialized in UTC format. However, I want it serialized in the form Aug 23, 2000 12:00 AM.

I have tried setting the date format on GsonBuilder, but that does not come into effect. Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated

Please show how you are setting up `Date` serialization in GSON – Karol Dowbecki Sep 16 '20 at 15:39

Does this answer your question? [GSON - Date format](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6873020/gson-date-format) – IQbrod Sep 16 '20 at 15:39
Nope, I have tried all that is there in the linked question but it didn’t work. – Sep 16 '20 at 15:41

If you can, use classes from the `java.time` package, instead of `Date`, as the latter is out*date*d. – MC Emperor Sep 16 '20 at 15:46
