JAXRPC TCK CALENDAR ISSUE: Attn Lance

[scheu]

Lance,

Axis is failing 3 of the jaxrpc.ee.w2j.rpc.encoded.parametermodetest tests
due to a Calendar comparison.

Here is the comparison method (in the JAXRPC_Datat class) that is used by
the TCK to compare Calendars:

    public static boolean compareCalendars(Calendar cal1, Calendar cal2) {
        SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.
SSS z");
        TimeZone tmpzone = cal1.getTimeZone();
        tmpzone.setID("Custom");
        df.setTimeZone(tmpzone);
        String str1 = df.format(cal1.getTime());
        tmpzone = cal2.getTimeZone();
        tmpzone.setID("Custom");
        df.setTimeZone(tmpzone);
        String str2 = df.format(cal2.getTime());
        System.out.println("str1=" + str1);  // Debug added by me
        System.out.println("str2=" + str2);  // Debug added by me
        return str1.equals(str2);
    }

This method is used to compare the original Calendar (GregorianCalendar(96,
5,1)) and the Calendar that is received by the service.  The problem is
that Axis always serializes the Calendar in its canonical form; thus the
Calendar received by the service will always be in the GMT timezone.
