FULL OS VERSION :

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
SimpleDateFormatter("yyyy-ww", Locale.US) incorrectly parses the string "2003-01". Reformatting the result shows "2002-01", and the date constructed from that is different from the input date. I would expect that the parsed Date is invariant when sent in and out of the same date formatter.
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run the attached program.
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
I was expecting '2003-01' when parsed and formatted again to show '2003-01', and the Date object produced to show the same absolute time every time the parsed output is formatted and reparsed.
ACTUAL -
'2003-01' shows '2002-01'; parsing the latter doesn't produce the original time back. Works fine for '2003-02'
REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
