Unparseable date exception if the date format is other than yyyy-MM-dd for the
date range
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MCHANGELOG-81
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHANGELOG-81
Project: Maven 2.x Changelog Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.1
Environment: Perforce SCM
Reporter: Sudharma Rao
Priority: Critical
Getting following error if the date format is other than yyyy-MM-dd as in case
of Perforce SCM
Embedded error: An error has occurred during changelog command :
Unparseable date: "2008/02/08 01:01:01"
Following is the plugin configuration and I'm using Perforce SCM.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-changelog-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<dateFormat>yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss</dateFormat>
<type>date</type>
<dates>
<date implementation="java.lang.String">2008/02/08 01:01:01</date>
<date implementation="java.lang.String">2008/02/01 01:01:01</date>
</dates>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Cause:
The date format is hardcoded to "yyyy-MM-dd" at line 572 in
org/apache/maven/plugin/changelog/ChangeLogReport.java
Solution:
The SCM plugin uses ' <userDateFormat>yyyy/MM/dd HH:mm:ss</userDateFormat>' for
the start and end date. The Changelog plugin doesn't use this. Please make it
use either 'userDateFormat' or 'dateFormat' for parsing date.
