Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRAPI-284:
------------------------------------------
Grrr... Another example of Micro$oft not being able to respect the standars :/
{{GeneralizedTime}} *must* respect this format :
{noformat}
GeneralizedTime = century year month day hour
[ minute [ second / leap-second ] ]
[ fraction ]
g-time-zone
g-time-zone = %x5A ; "Z" | g-differential
g-differential = ( MINUS / PLUS ) hour [ minute ]
{noformat}
{{9223372036854775807}} is certainly not valid wrt to the ISO8601 spec :/
I can't wait for M$ to go bankrupt...
Ok, at this point, teh only solution would be to add a specific check for this
stupid number, and accept it.
PS : Bill Gates and co, you are a bunch of morons !
