JarCastingLazyThreeTenBp
A lazy loading ZoneRuleProvider for ThreeTenBp.
Usage
You have to initialize LazyThreeTenBp as early as possible, before your code accesses any threetenbp class. Usually the best place is in your Application.onCreate() method:
@Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
LazyThreeTen.init(this);
}
Afterwards you can call LazyThreeTen.cacheZones() on a background thread to cache the timezone information without blocking the startup of your app. If you decide not to do that the individual timezones will be loaded on demand when they are accessed for the first time.
Download
Add a Gradle dependency:

Snapshots of the development version are available in Sonatype's snapshots repository.
