I've opened bug 3576 with a patch to correct the formatting of the DateTime used by the script: http://bugzilla.opennms.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3576 > Regarding this question: > >> * Question: Is there any particular reason the Date is stored this >> way internally? > > In this case, the date is coming in via XML, so we have to convert what > comes in via XML into Java objects, and this is where the exception is > happening in your case. Is there anyway to add any validation to the Castor created Event class? It would be nicer if the Event.setTime() method threw the exception when the badly formatted data came in rather than when it was used. Of course this would probably involve parsing the date which leads to the question of why the Castor object has to store time as a string? It's not as though XML can't feed in an unambiguously specified time spec: http://www.w3schools.com/Schema/schema_dtypes_date.asp -- Alex, homepage: http://www.bennee.com/~alex/ http://www.half-llama.co.uk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
