Daniel Dowd commented on LANG-986: ---------------------------------- Is this improvement something that can be worked on? If so I would like to take it on. > DurationFormatUtils.formatDuration accepts formats with year/month but cannot > use them > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LANG-986 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-986 > Project: Commons Lang > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: lang.time.* > Reporter: Sebb > Priority: Major > Fix For: Discussion > > > The method DurationFormatUtils.formatDuration does not validate that the > format is applicable. The method does not calculate months and years, so > these values will be 0 if the format contains y or M. > Perhaps the method should throw IAE if one of the unused format chars is used? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
