CalendarDeserializer and empty dates

[Mike Wallace <th...@yahoo.com>]

The XML message we're attempting to deserialize has
the following elements in it:
<assignedDate xsi:type="xsd:dateTime" />
<createdDate
xsi:type="xsd:dateTime">2006-07-19T18:23:46.327Z</createdDate>

The createDate element has no problems, but
assignedDate, which has no data, fails with the
following:

java.lang.NumberFormatException: Invalid date/time

Is this a known limitation of the Calendar deserializer?

Re: CalendarDeserializer and empty dates

The empty string is not a valid xsd:dateTime. 

To make this a valid response from your service, you would have to 
specify in the schema that assignedDate was nillable and in the 
respponse, <assignedDate xsi:nil="true" ...> .  I don't know whether the 
Calendar serializer would have to be able to handle it then -- probably not.

Another possibility is to make the assignedDate element optional in the 
schema (minOccurs="0") and omit in the response when it has no value.
