I've recently switched from JSF 1.1 to JSF 1.2 and am running into some
apparent differences in the implementation of the convertDateTime component.

Here is the code snipit from the jsp:

    <t:inputText binding="#{reportMgrBean.timeUpStartDateInput}" size="10"
maxlength="10"
         immediate="true" value="#{reportMgrBean.timeUpStartDate}"
title="yyyy-MM-dd"
         forceId="true" id="timeUpStartDateInput">
            <h:convertDateTime type="date" pattern="yyyy-MM-dd"/>
   </t:inputText>

   <t:inputText binding="#{reportMgrBean.timeUpStartTimeInput}" size="8"
maxlength="8"
         immediate="true" value="#{reportMgrBean.timeUpStartTime}"
title="HH:mm:ss"
         forceId="true" id="timeUpStartTimeInput">
            <h:convertDateTime type="time" pattern="HH:mm:ss"/>
   </t:inputText>

I have the appropriate backing bean ReportMgrBean with the associated
HtmlInput binding objects.
When I submit the page, I see different values for the date and time
depending on which JSF version I'm using.

The date and time fields are set in the bean using the same java.util.Date
instance as follows:


     Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance( TimeZone.getTimeZone( "GMT" ) );

     startDateInput.setValue( calendar.getTime() );
     startTimeInput.setValue( calendar.getTime() );


Under MyFaces 1.1.4, Java 1.4, tomahawk 1.1.3 and assuming the date was
12:20:32 on Aug 4th 2009, I get:

date = '2009-08-04 00:00:00'
time= '1970-01-01 12:20:32'

So if I combine the two values, I end up with '2009-08-04 12:20:32', which
is the correct submit date/time.

Under MyFaces 1.2.6, Java 1.5, tomahawk12-1.1.8, and assuming the same
date/time values are set, I get:

date= '2009-08-04 12:20:32'
time= '1970-01-01 12:20:32'

So for some reason the converter on the "date" part is no longer zero-ing
out the time fields, but the "time" converter IS zero-ing out the date
fields.  Can anyone else verify or have any ideas as to why this might be
happening?

TIA.
