Jason E Bailey commented on SLING-7590:
---------------------------------------
[[email protected]] This gets confusing because each module has come up
with it's own way of doing things. The content loader *only* recognizes an
ISO-8601 format as a Date, but doesn't use the ISO8601 utility class, and so it
doesn't keep the offset. So right now, if you use a GET for JSON and turn
around and POST that JSON back into sling it won't recognize the date string as
a date.
Browsers now use the ISO-8601 format for dates and will fall back to the ECMA
format as a fail over. I don't know why we're returning a JSON date using that
format because it;s not the format that the XML response used. The XM used the
ISO-8601. Which is a standard, and we should switch things to use a standard,
at least as the default.
I'll write something up for the mailing list.

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Jason E Bailey
> Priority: Major
>
> When importing content, the JCR supports the setting of the time zone for a
> jcr Date. However we currently have several processes that fail to set the
> time zone correctly.
> org.apache.sling.jcr.contentparser.impl.ParserHelper
> org.apache.sling.jcr.contentloader.internal.DefaultContentCreator
> org.apache.sling.servlets.post.impl.helper.DateParser
> Take a String based time representation that includes a time offset and
> convert it to Date that looses that information, before conversion to a
> Calendar object.
