Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-1621:
-----------------------------------------
Thanks to both of you! Somehow this was forgotten.
I thought about adding a getModifiedDate() returning a calendar, but didn't,
because the spec mentions that "conforming readers shall accept and display a
string in any format."
> Add setModifiedDate(Calendar c) to PDAnnotation

>
> Currently, the setModifiedDate method takes a String object as its input
> parameter, but this string must be formatted in the PDF ISO Date format,
> which is not documented and is confusing.
> My proposal is to make it more consistent with the setCreationDate method and
> change the input parameter to Calendar, and add a function that converts that
> Calendar object into a properly formatted string. The method that takes a
> String as input can be left for compatibility purposes, but the javadoc
> should be adjusted to show what type of string should be used.
