Hi all, I just checked out the java tree and encountered the following problem, which seems fixable with a one line change (details at bottom).
Running org.apache.tuscany.sca.databinding.extension.SimpleTypeMapperExtensionTestCase Tests run: 1, Failures: 0, Errors: 1, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 0.094 sec <<< FAILURE! testMap( org.apache.tuscany.sca.databinding.extension.SimpleTypeMapperExtensionTestCase) Time elapsed: 0.078 sec <<< ERROR! java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: --02-- at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.jaxp.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendarImpl$Parser.parseInt (XMLGregorianCalendarImpl.java:2789) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.jaxp.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendarImpl$Parser.parse (XMLGregorianCalendarImpl.java:2711) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.jaxp.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendarImpl .<init>(XMLGregorianCalendarImpl.java:433) at com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.jaxp.datatype.DatatypeFactoryImpl.newXMLGregorianCalendar (DatatypeFactoryImpl.java:230) at org.apache.tuscany.sca.databinding.impl.SimpleTypeMapperImpl.toJavaObject( SimpleTypeMapperImpl.java:330) at org.apache.tuscany.sca.databinding.extension.SimpleTypeMapperExtensionTestCase.testMap (SimpleTypeMapperExtensionTestCase.java:107) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke( NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke( DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:589) at junit.framework.TestCase.runTest(TestCase.java:168) at junit.framework.TestCase.runBare(TestCase.java:134) at junit.framework.TestResult$1.protect(TestResult.java:110) at junit.framework.TestResult.runProtected(TestResult.java:128) at junit.framework.TestResult.run(TestResult.java:113) at junit.framework.TestCase.run(TestCase.java:124) at junit.framework.TestSuite.runTest(TestSuite.java:232) at junit.framework.TestSuite.run(TestSuite.java:227) at org.junit.internal.runners.OldTestClassRunner.run( OldTestClassRunner.java:35) at org.apache.maven.surefire.junit4.JUnit4TestSet.execute( JUnit4TestSet.java:62) at org.apache.maven.surefire.suite.AbstractDirectoryTestSuite.executeTestSet( AbstractDirectoryTestSuite.java:138) at org.apache.maven.surefire.suite.AbstractDirectoryTestSuite.execute( AbstractDirectoryTestSuite.java:125) at org.apache.maven.surefire.Surefire.run(Surefire.java:132) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke( NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke( DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:589) at org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.SurefireBooter.runSuitesInProcess( SurefireBooter.java:290) at org.apache.maven.surefire.booter.SurefireBooter.main( SurefireBooter.java:818) So we have two relevant source files: 1) modules\databinding\src\main\java\org\apache\tuscany\sca\databinding\impl\SimpleTypeMapperImpl.java 2) modules\databinding\src\test\java\org\apache\tuscany\sca\databinding\extension\SimpleTypeMapperExtensionTestCase.java Looking at the two relevant source files and the trace I found it was failing when passing in a value of "--02--" to DatatypeFactory.newInstance ().newXMLGregorianCalendar. The gMonth format is in section 3.2.14.2 of the relevant spec: http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#dateTime-order, and says the format should only be --MM. Note that gDay is ---DD (sec. 3.2.13.1). Looking at the TestCase I see on line 52 that the format looks wrong. Changed it from --02-- to --02 and re-tested and got past that error. Since it's a one line fix I didn't attach a patch.
