Date type properties: Content.setNodeData() expects Calendar object, while
Content2Bean passes Date object
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAGNOLIA-3483
URL: http://jira.magnolia-cms.com/browse/MAGNOLIA-3483
Project: Magnolia
Issue Type: Bug
Components: content2bean, core
Affects Versions: 4.3.8
Reporter: Felix Rabe
Assignee: Boris Kraft
Fix For: 5.0
*Observation:* While working on REG-91, I used
{{info.magnolia.cms.core.Content.setNodeData(String, Calendar)}} to set the
value of a {{type="Date"}} JCR property. Later, I just assumed Content2Bean
likewise to pass a {{Calendar}} object to my bean setter methods - see the
state of AuthenticationTokenConfig.java in commit r40983. This did not work,
and it turns out that the Content2Bean mechanism actually passes a {{Date}}
object for {{type="Date"}} JCR properties. (I found out by changing the
parameter of the setter method from {{Calendar}} to {{Object}} and stepping
into the method in debugging mode.)
*Problem:* Representing the same JCR data using two different Java types just
feels plain wrong.
*Proposed solution:* Use the same (sane) Java type for the JCR API and for the
Content2Bean mechanism in Magnolia 5.0.
