Pétur Runólfsson commented on AXIS2-4370:
-----------------------------------------
I fully agree that java.util.Date is not the best way to manage date/time
values. However, it is equally bad whether the time is included or not. I don't
see how the lack of time zone has any effect on the choice between xs:date and
xs:dateTime, a time zone is optional for both of those types. If fact, the xml
schema type that is the closest match for java.util.Date is a xs:dateTime
without a time zone.
Xml schema has a bunch of date/time types, most of which don't have any good
match in java.util. If Axis2 is to support xml types other xs:dateTime, I don't
think the way to go is to arbitrarily assign Java types to xml types. Instead,
Axis2 should allow users to specify types to use (for example Joda-time or
JSR-310) along with mappings and formatting/parsing functions. If JSR-310 is
approved, it would of course make sense for Axis2 to support it directly.

> Project: Axis 2.0 (Axis2)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: adb
> Affects Versions: 1.5
> Reporter: Pétur Runólfsson
> Attachments: Server-1.4.1.wsdl, Server-1.5.wsdl, Server.java,
> services.xml
>
>
> When a method returns a java.util.Date (or an object containing a
> java.util.Date), only the date portion is returned in Axis2 1.5:
> <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
> <soapenv:Body>
> <ns:getCurrentTimeResponse xmlns:ns="http://ws.apache.org/axis2">
> <ns:return>2009-06-10</ns:return>
> </ns:getCurrentTimeResponse>
> </soapenv:Body>
> </soapenv:Envelope>
> In Axis2 1.4.1, the full date and time was returned:
> <soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
> <soapenv:Body>
> <ns:getCurrentTimeResponse xmlns:ns="http://ws.apache.org/axis2">
> <ns:return>2009-06-10T16:22:22.622Z</ns:return>
> </ns:getCurrentTimeResponse>
> </soapenv:Body>
> </soapenv:Envelope>
> This change breaks any application that requires the time portion to function
> correctly.
