Intelligent date / time parser for Java

Question

Is there some intelligent date / time parser library for Java? By intelligent I mean, that I don\'t need to specify the date / time format. The API should be similar to this

Answer 1

JodaTime is excellent for manipulating date objects (e.g. date.plusDays(10))

...but JChronic is what you want for natural language date parsing, e.g.

Chronic.parse("now")
Chronic.parse("tomorrow 15:00")
Chronic.parse("14/2/2001")
Chronic.parse("yesterday")
Chronic.parse("20 Jan 2010")

Your question is similar to this one.
