[mule-user] xml-to-object-transformer

[patricksan]

Dear All,

I have this XML:
....
....
<createDate>2009-05-19T07:40:00</createDate>
....
....

When I try to convert to the object using xml-to-object-transformer I got
this exception:
oot Exception stack trace:
com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.ConversionException: Cannot parse date
2009-05-19T07:40:00
---- Debugging information ----
class : com.vangenechten.system.edi.model.DelForHeader
required-type : java.util.Date
path :

Is there a way to set the format or locale to avoid this problem?

Thank you,
Patrick Santana

I handled this by creating my own xmltoobject transformer that is a simple
override of the OOTB transformer.

The xstream site talks about the joda classes which is a jar file full of
date time code available on sourceforge.

ISO8601GregorianCalendarConverter provides a huge collection of formats for
translation, but it isn't active by default.

HTH

import org.mule.api.transformer.TransformerException;
import org.mule.module.xml.transformer.XmlToObject;
import
com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.extended.ISO8601GregorianCalendarConverter;

/**
* You must have the joda jar file in the classpath for this to work.
* @author dyh
*
*/
public class SoapMessageConverter extends XmlToObject {

public SoapMessageConverter()
{
super();
try {
getXStream().registerConverter(new ISO8601GregorianCalendarConverter());
} catch (TransformerException e) {
throw new RuntimeException("unable to get xstream " +
"in converter constructor "+e.getMessage());
}

}

}

Hi, later Mule versions allow for better customization of this transformer. Anyway, could you please file a jira so we can consider this library for inclusion in the OOTB distribution?

Thanks!
Andrew

For future reference. If I use

getXStream().registerConverter(new ISO8601GregorianCalendarConverter()

it does not work. It has the same exception. So I changed it to

getXStream().registerConverter(new ISO8601DateConverter());

and it works.

Thank you all,
Patrick
