Hi,
I have opened OLINGO-214 for this, and attached a patch there: please
take a look and let me know if it is fine, so that I will commit it.
FYI, I have also made some enhancements to V3 EdmDateTime - you can take
a look at the version at https://paste.apache.org/hRR3
Regards.

Hi all,
I am almost done with OLINGO-65 and all client code is now using
Olingo's EdmType hierarchy, including EdmPrimitiveType children.
I am currently experiencing some troubles because EdmTimeOfDay /
EdmDateTimeOffset are not working as I would expect.
In the OData 4.0 ABNF grammar you can find that
dateTimeOffsetValue = year "-" month "-" day "T" hour ":" minute [ ":"
second [ "." fractionalSeconds ] ] ( "Z" / sign hour ":" minute )
timeOfDayValue = hour ":" minute [ ":" second [ "." fractionalSeconds ] ]
fractionalSeconds = 1*12DIGIT
This barely refers to EdmTimeOfDay / EdmDateTimeOffset literals and
states that you can have up to 12 fractional seconds digits, right?
But EdmTimeOfDay [2] and EdmDateTimeOffset [3] are only able to deal
with 3 fractional seconds digit - mostly because both internally use
Calendar as concrete implementation, and its precision arrives to
milliseconds at most.
As part of OLINGO-65 I have developed EdmDateTime for V3 (which you
can find at [4] since I haven't pushed yet); as you can see, it works
differently: instead of relying upon regexp, it uses SimpleDateFormat
and supports both Calendar and java.sql.Timestamp - which allows up to
nanoseconds.
What do you think? Shall I try to extends [2] and [3] to make them
able to work with up to 12 fractional second digits, as EdmDateTime is
doing? Even leaving the regexp mechanism there, in fact, I would need
to use java.sql.Timestamp as internal representation.
Moreover, [5] states, about "Precision" facet, that
For a temporal property the value of this attribute specifies the
number of decimal places allowed in the seconds portion of the
property's value; it MUST be a non-negative integer between zero and
twelve. If no value is specified, the temporal property has a
precision of zero.
However, [3] do take the precision parameter into account (while [2]
does).
Shall we fix this as well?
Regards.
