Gareth Carter commented on OFBIZ-5608:
--------------------------------------
Patch works.
To test:
- Set timezone to Europe/London
- Modify PartyForms.xml#EditPerson. Add the following to the form:
{code}
<field name="birthDate" title="My Custom Birth Date">
<date-time type="date" ignore-time-zone="true" />
</field>
{code}
- Create a new person with birth date edited
- Change timezone to America/New_York
- Edit person and you should see birthdate is the same value when set in
Europe/London timezone
- If you change ignore-time-zone = "false" and edit again, the birthdate field
should contain the original date - 1 day
With the patch as it is, none of the forms with a date only field will have
ignore-time-zone="true" set, so ofbiz will behave as it does without this
patch. Would there be any plans to update existing forms? Eg
PartyForms.xml#EditPerson
> Dates Displaying Incorrectly With Negative Offest Timezones.
