Perhaps something similar to how > SimpleDateFormat.isLenient() exists because one size does not fit all? That sounds like a good compromise. Every time we've tried to impose a single way to handle this sort of thing, we always seem to get bitten by some special case (curse FTP and its unspecified listing output! :). Letting the API user decide if he wants a looser "slop"-handling interpretation of dates provides sufficient flexibility for programmers to work around special cases without forcing the API to be all-knowing. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
