Commit f2b9a374d817ee630a2efe706546ba4f1e5a5ac4 in httpcomponents-client's
branch refs/heads/master from Arturo Bernal
[ https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=httpcomponents-client.git;h=f2b9a374d ]
HTTPCLIENT-2319 / Updated the parseDate method to solely catch
DateTimeException, streamlining error handling for date parsing and conversion.
This change ensures comprehensive management of parsing issues, including those
due to absent time-zone information, aligning with our documentation that the
method should return null when conversion to Instant is not feasible. (#551)
> DateUtils.parseStandardDate() throws exception instead of returning null

> Key: HTTPCLIENT-2319
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-2319
> Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: HttpClient (classic)
>Affects Versions: 5.3.1
>Reporter: Bernd Watermann
>Priority: Minor
>
> The following line of code
> {code:java}
> org.apache.hc.client5.http.utils.DateUtils.parseStandardDate("Thu Feb 22
> 17:20:18 2024");{code}
> throws an exception with the following stack trace:
> {noformat}
> java.time.DateTimeException: Unable to obtain Instant from TemporalAccessor:
> {},ISO resolved to 2024-02-22T17:20:18 of type java.time.format.Parsed
> at java.base/java.time.Instant.from(Instant.java:380)
> at
> org.apache.hc.client5.http.utils.DateUtils.parseDate(DateUtils.java:165)
> at
> org.apache.hc.client5.http.utils.DateUtils.parseStandardDate(DateUtils.java:183){noformat}
> The documentation for parseStandardDate(), however, says:
> ??Returns: the parsed instant or null if input could not be parsed??
> Throwing an exception does not seem to conform to that spec.
> Note that I don't care (at present) if the given string should actually be
> parseable or not. The primary issue is error handling and the fact that any
> error should lead to a null result and not to an exception being thrown.
