XMLGregorianCalendar.toXMLFormat does not throw IllegalStateException

Name: erR10175 Date: 12/26/2003


 
  The following methods of the class javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar

public QName getXMLSchemaType()
public String toXMLFormat()

do not throw IllegalStateException if the combination of specified fields
does not match one of the eight defined XML Schema builtin date/time datatypes.

According to the table in the description of the method getXMLSchemaType(),
there is no XML Schema builtin date/time datatype which corresponds to an
XMLGregorianCalendar instance with the following fields specified:
Year, Month, Day, Hour, Second. For such a value the methods should throw
IllegalStateException, but getXMLSchemaType() returns type dateTime
and toXMLFormat() returns the invalid lexical representation
'1970-01-01T00:-2147483648:00'.

This bug affects new test in JCK 1.5 (not integrated yet)
    api/javax_xml/datatype/XMLGregorianCalendar/index.html#ToXML[GetXMLSchemaType002]
    api/javax_xml/datatype/XMLGregorianCalendar/index.html#ToXML[ToXMLFormat001]

The bug is found in jdk1.5.0/beta/b32.

To reproduce the bug compile and run the following code as shown
in the log below:
------------------------------------------ test.java
import javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar;

class test {
    public static void main(String [] args) {
        try {
            XMLGregorianCalendar calendar
                = XMLGregorianCalendar.createDateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0
                    , XMLGregorianCalendar.FIELD_UNDEFINED, 0, 0, 0);

            System.out.println("Failed: getXMLSchemaType() returns "
                + calendar.getXMLSchemaType());
            System.out.println("Failed: toXMLFormat() returns "
                + calendar.toXMLFormat());
        } catch (IllegalArgumentException e) {
            System.out.println("OK");
        }
    }
}
