XMLGregorianCalendarImpl format method generates improperly formatted date 
string
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: XERCESJ-1097
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1097
     Project: Xerces2-J
        Type: Bug
  Components: JAXP (javax.xml.datatype)  
    Versions: 2.7.0, 2.7.1    
 Environment: Linux starscream 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 #1 Fri Aug 26 20:29:51 EDT 
2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_04-b05)
    Reporter: George F. Willard III


PROBLEM:
The format method of XMLGregorianCalendarImpl may generate non-RFC3339 
compliant strings because the toString method of BigDecimal defaults to using 
scientific "E-" notation instead of engineering notation.  I encountered this 
problem when unit testing JAX-WS pre-releases, and recreated it with a simple 
Calendar echo unit test that fails:

INPUT TO  echoCalendar WEB SERVICE: 0001-01-01T00:00:00.0000000-05:00
EXPECTED OUTPUT FROM  echoCalendar WEB SERVICE: 
0001-01-01T00:00:00.0000000-05:00
ACTUAL OUTPUT FROM echoCalendar WEB SERVICE: 0001-01-01T00:00:00E-7-05:00

  ** Note that the fractionalSeconds were expressed in scientific "E-7" 
notation instead of engineering notation causing it to be interpreted as 
invalid by web service clients.

SUGGESTED FIX:
FILE: src/org/apache/xerces/jaxp/datatype/XMLGregorianCalendarImpl.java:2960

CURRENT: String frac = getFractionalSecond().toString(); 
SUGGESTED: String frac = getFractionalSecond().toPlainString();
