>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-22068
>             Project: Apache Flex
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: mx: General
>    Affects Versions: Adobe Flex SDK 3.4 (Release)
>         Environment: Affected OS(s): All OS Platforms
> Affected OS(s): All OS Platforms
> Language Found: English
>            Reporter: Adobe JIRA
>              Labels: easyfix, easytest

> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. Create a date string with a positive offset (ex GMT+0100 such as the offset in the UK)
> 2. call DateFormatter.parse with the date value
> 3. Observe the output
>  
>  Actual Results:
>  
> The Date object fullYear return will be 100  (or whatever the positive offset is)
>  
>  Expected Results:
>  
> The date object should have the correct year as was in the date string
>  
>  Workaround (if any):
>  
>  extend DateFormatter and override parse, add the following before calling super.parse:
> var timezoneRegEx:RegExp = /(GMT|UTC)(-|\+)\d\d\d\d/ig;  // account for both negative and positive offset
> str = str.replace(timezoneRegEx, "");
