Leandro,
Chances are your code tries to create Oct 19 2008 at Midnight, which happens to
be when the Sao Paulo daylight savings time transition occurs. This error is
telling you that this time (instant) doesn't exist. At the DST transition to
time moves from Oct 18 23:59:50 to Oct 18 01:00:00, midnight is skipped. I
suspect your input argument equals Oct 18 00:00:00. Check out the thread at
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=52BAF2247695064397E0B142F7B372980142DF70%40306181ANEX3.global.avaya.com.
This may provide some more insight into how to resolve your problem.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Rich

Subject: [Joda-interest] Problem with parseDateTime and daylight in Brazil
Hi.
I'm getting the following error when I try to run the code
public static void main(String[] args) {
// -Duser.timezone=Brazil/East
DateTimeFormatter dtf = DateTimeFormat.forPattern( "dd/MM/yyyy" );
LocalDate b = dtf.parseDateTime( args[0] ).toLocalDate();
System.out.println( b );
}
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot parse
"19/10/2008": Illegal instant due to time zone offset transition
(America/Sao_Paulo)
at
org.joda.time.format.DateTimeParserBucket.computeMillis(DateTimeParserBucket.java:336)
at
org.joda.time.format.DateTimeFormatter.parseDateTime(DateTimeFormatter.java:662)
at joda.Teste.main(Teste.java:22)
The argument to the program is 19/10/2008, the day in which our daylight starts
here.
I can't figure out how to fix this.
Is there any way to parse a date other than that?
Thanks!
