Does the actual method fail, or the test? I tweaked the DateUtils class, but I didn't touch that part of the parseCVS method. I did add a test for "h:mm z", but it passed on my system (I don't have the locale right in front of me at the moment). > > Stephen > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Steven Caswell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "'Jakarta Commons Developers List'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Monday, August 04, 2003 1:11 AM > Subject: RE: [lang] DateUtils parseCVS with time format > > > And I should have said that I don't know the CVS behavior either. > > So I guess the next question is how closely should we try to mimic the CVS > format, given that this is the parseCVS method.
