Uwe Schindler commented on TIKA-2722: ------------------------------------- Cool thanks for the reproducer. That's indeed a bug, as you explicitely set locale on the call to {{getDisplayName()}}. It still uses default timezone to return the value. BUG! > Don't call Date.toString (Possible issue with JDK 11) > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: TIKA-2722 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2722 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Bug > Environment: Tika 1.18, JDK 11 with locale set to "ar-EG". > Reporter: David Smiley > Priority: Major > > I'm troubleshooting [a test failure in Apache > Lucene/Sor|https://jenkins.thetaphi.de/job/Lucene-Solr-master-Linux/22799/] > "extracting" contrib that occurs in JDK 11 with locale "ar-EG". JDK 8 & 9 > passes; I don't know about JDK 10. It has to do with extracting date metadata > from a PDF, particularly the created date but perhaps others too. > I stepped through the code into Tika and I think I've found out where the > troublesome code is. First note PDFParser line 271: {{addMetadata(metadata, > "created", info.getCreationDate());}}. That addMetadata overload variant > will call toString on a Date. IMO that's asking for trouble since the output > of that is Locale-dependent. I think that's okay to show to a user but not > for machine-to-machine information exchange. In the case of the test, it > yielded this odd looking date string: > Thu Nov 13 18:35:51 GMT+٠٥:٠٠ 2008 > I pasted that in and it looks consistent with what I see in IntelliJ and in > Jenkins logs; hopefully will post correctly to JIRA. The odd part is the > hour & minutes relative to GMT. I won't be certain until after I click > "Create". > Perhaps this problem is also indicative of a JDK 11 bug? Nevertheless I > think Tika should avoid calling Date.toString(). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
