The patch only changes the text of one of the two appendValueReduced methods. The patch does not handle week based years or provide for users to add their own year fields. It also does not handle formatting.
After much thinking, I think the right solution is to add a new appendValueReduced method where "int baseValue" is replaced by "ChronoLocalDate baseDate". The new method would be used if you want year-like fields in multiple chronologies to work. The appendPattern method would be changed to use the new date variant for y/u/W The first of the two existing appendValueReduced methods can be removed as a simplification. Patch here: https://gist.github.com/jodastephen/6660394 Note that this patch still has a bug, as the effective chrono is not determined fully until the end of the parsing phase. However, that bug fix requires a bit of an internal redesign and since it does not affect the API it can be delayed, Stephen On 21 September 2013 20:15, roger riggs <roger.ri...@oracle.com> wrote: > Hi, > > The java.time reduced value parser does work as expected (issue 8024076) > for chronologies other than ISO. > The base value is assumed to be chronology independent but is not > converted to the requested Chronology before it is used. > > Please review: > > http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rriggs/webrev-two-digit-8024076/ > > Thanks, Roger > > [1] https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8024076 >
