Values of attributes of the syntax 'Generalized Time' must have the g-time-zone 
'Z' and minutes and seconds set to be interpreted and shown as a date instead 
of the raw value

                 Key: DIRSTUDIO-293
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-293
             Project: Directory Studio
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: studio-ldapbrowser
         Environment: Gentoo Base System release 1.12.11.1;
Linux o309 2.6.23-gentoo-r8o309 #1 PREEMPT Mon Feb 25 15:31:40 CET 2008 i686 
Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux;
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_14-b03);
Apache Directory Studio 1.1.0.v20080303
            Reporter: Linus van Geuns
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.1.0


1.) Create some entry in your directory containing an attribute of the syntax 
'Generalized Time'
2.) Set that to a value containing the 'g-time-zone' 'Z' and vlues for 'minute' 
and 'second', eg '20080309234300Z'
3.) When viewing the entry in the LDAP browser this value will be interpreted 
as a date and shown as '09.03.2008 23:45 CET (..'
4.) Now remove the 'second' or replace the 'g-time-zone' with eg '+02'
5.) When viewing the entry in the LDAP browser after changing it according to 
(4.) only the raw value for the 'Generalized Time' will be shown.

According to RFC4517 ยง3.3.13, the syntax 'Generalized Time' only requires 
values for 'century', 'year', 'month', 'day' and 'hour' plus the 'g-time-zome' 
which can be 'Z' or a 'g-differential' ((+/-)hour[minute]) representing a local 
time zone, so the LDAP browser should be able to interpret those values.
