datetime in webservice

cburghardt — Fri, 23 Dec 2005 15:12:13 GMT

Simple question: how do I set a custom property which is defined as d:datetime via CML? A CMLCreate takes a NamedValue[] as input but a NamedValue accepts only strings. I have tried to sent the date as ISO8601DateFormat because I found this in the converters but I always get the same error: {h

As you correctly found out, dates should be passed in ISO8601 format. Try this format:

YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss

Interesting, if I use your formatter (org.alfresco.util.ISO8601DateFormat) it works. If I use the formatter from the log4j package (org.apache.log4j.helpers.ISO8601DateFormat) it doesn't - probably because of the missing 'T'.

It seems that datetime properties are not correctly converted when they are retrieved with RepositoryService#query. The NamedValue contains something like "Sat Jan 07 23:51:38 CET 2006". If I am not mistaken this is produced in ResultSetQuerySession which does not use the DefaultTypeConverter but simply Object.toString().

Hi,

Thanks for finding this. I've created an entry in JIRA so this bug doesn't get lost. You can track its progress here.

Cheers,
