> Key: SLING-1206
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-1206
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Servlets
> Affects Versions: Servlets Post 2.0.4, Servlets Post 2.0.2
> Reporter: Alexander Klimetschek
> Assignee: Felix Meschberger
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: Servlets Post 2.0.6

> An ISO8601 date format, as it is returned by javax.jcr.Property.getString()
> for date properties, looks like this:
> 2009-11-18T11:30:00+10:30
> When roundtripping this string by posting it to the sling post servlet (using
> @TypeHint=Date), it will be parsed by this pattern "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss",
> configured as third in the SlingPostServlet's servlet.post.dateFormats
> config. But then timezone information is lost and the default timezone of the
> server will be used, which produces a wrong date in the end.
> The problem is that Java's SimpleDateFormat used in the SlingPostServlet
> (DateParser class), does not support the ISO8601 way of specifying timezone
> offsets at all. It either supports "GMT+10:30", where "GMT" must be present,
> or the RFC-822 style "+1030", without the colon.
> To support proper round-tripping, with date strings rendered directly from a
> JCR property, I suggest to
> a) introduce a special pattern string such as "iso8601" that uses the ISO8601
> utility class from jackrabbit-jcr-commons
> b) set this format as second one in the servlet.post.dateFormats list (before
> the problematic ones, but after the ECMA date format, which is needed for
> roundtripping with Sling JSON exports)
