Issues can't be assigned to non-committers, so please just attach a patch when you have it ready. Thanks, Frank. > Conversion to date types which do not include month can give incorrect results > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: TUSCANY-701 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TUSCANY-701 > Project: Tuscany > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Java SDO Implementation > Environment: Problem exists when running Sun JVM (is not seen on IBM > JVM) > Reporter: Brian Murray > Priority: Minor > > DateConversionTestCase.java made evident an issue corrected in Tuscany-582. > However, when it was introduced into the Tuscany stream an additional error > was seen sporadically (repeatedly for a given individual, but for a set of > individuals only a subset would see the problem). This JIRA will address the > additional error. > The reason the problem is seen only by a subset of people is that it is JVM > specific. When it is seen (as it is with the Sun JVM), the nature of the > problem is to report Day, Hour, and even Year values as X - 1, where X is the > correct value. The problem occurs when the requested date format does not > include a month (e.g. toYear, toDay). The truncated month is assigned a > value of January, and the Sun JVM may then (depending on the TimeZone, > northern versus southern hemisphere, and the month in which the test is run) > change the time to reflect the change to or from daylight savings time. > The reason it can have an impact on toYear is that toYear() for an input date > of Wednesday September 6, 2006 03:16:20.382 would result in an interim value > of Sunday January 1, 2006 00:00:00.000. In the case where an error is seen, > an adjustment is made for daylight savings time to Saturday December 31, 2005 > 23:00:00.000. As such, toYear erroneously returns a value of 2005 for the > input date (in the error case). > Would a committer please assign this issue to me?. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
