IsoDate.stringToDate error

[CJGarber]

IsoDate.stringToDate is generating an odd error when passed a date/
time string that includes milliseconds when the IsoDate.DATE_TIME flag
is used.

eg IsoDate.stringToDate("2012-01-17T19:30:26", IsoDate.DATE_TIME)
works fine, but
IsoDate.stringToDate("2012-01-17T19:30:26.003", IsoDate.DATE_TIME)
produces this error message:

"java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: index=12 length=12"

If the IsoDate.DATE flag is used, there is no problem with either
string

I dont know why this class is there the first place. Afaik though your
string is invalid as an isodate string (see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601) since you are missing the Z at
the end.

If you want to debug or so the code is here and could probably use a
unit test along these lines...

I started to use that class after seeing an example for marshalling
dates at:
http://seesharpgears.blogspot.com/2010/11/implementing-ksoap-marshal-interface.html
Should I not be using it?

re: the date string format.....this is the date string generated by a
SOAP (.NET) Web Service.
Looking at the wiki link you posted, under the "Combined date and time
representations" section, both Z and no-Z formats are listed as
acceptable.

However, looking at the code you posted a link to, I can see where it
is probably going wrong.....the break condition in this loop
definitely expects a non-numeric char of some kind after the millis:
int ms = 0;
int f = 100;
while (true) {
char d = text.charAt(++pos);
if (d < '0' || d > '9') <<<<<<<<<<PROBLEM when no
'Z' at end of time string
break;
ms += (d - '0') * f;
f /= 10;
}

I have no experience with contributing to open source projects, and
don't have the time right now to learn how, so I'll leave the actual
code fix to someone else.
I don't care about the time portion of the date right now, so I'll
just use the DATE flag when calling the function...

Could you create an issue that point to this thread as your contribution...
