[PATCH] Extend the XmlParser to accept Dates with '-' as delimeter

[Jens Ritter <ri...@web.de>]

Hi Folks !

I'm currently playing with the eGroupware xml-rpc - and discovered, that 
this shiny application send the DateTime in a slight other format

YYYY-MM-DDTZHH:MM:SS

The patch.txt extends the Parser ( in a non-destructive-way ).

Hope that helps.

Hi, Jens,

sorry for replying late, but it took me some time.

It is quite likely, that we'll find all flavours of date formats in the 
wild. It is obvious, that we cannot support all. In other words, your 
patch won't get in, sorry!

Nevertheless, we can offer you the possibility to talk to such a server 
by using a custom type factory. See the section on "Custom data types" in

http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/webservices/xmlrpc/trunk/src/site/apt/advanced.apt?view=markup

(Writing this section was what took me some time.) Hope, that's just as 
good.


Jochen
