Fix for MPIR-171 generates unnecessary and confusing warnings for non-integral
time-zones
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MPIR-221
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPIR-221
Project: Maven 2.x Project Info Reports Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.3.1
Reporter: SebbASF
The change for MPIR-171 added a check to see if the timezone is numeric. If
not, it reports a warning.
However, the check fails to allow for non-integral timezones - e.g. 5.5 - and
the warning message is incorrect, as it does not show the correct information.
For example, the following setting:
<developer>
<timezone>+5.5</timezone>
</developer>
results in the warning:
[WARNING] The time zone '-2147483648' for the developer 'Name' is not a
recognised time zone, use a number in the range -12 to +14 instead of.
The message should read something like:
[WARNING] The time zone '+5.5' for the developer 'Name' is not a recognised
time zone, use a number in the range -12 to +14 or a valid long TimeZone id.
except that it should not be generated for that particular timezone, as +5.5 is
as valid as +5 (which does not generate a warning).
To summarise:
1) the warning message is not helpful, as it does not show the correct timezone.
2) the warning should not be generated for fractional timezones.
