Hello!
Following program prints
Date = Fri Sep 04 16:47:38 GMT+03:00 1998
in JDK and
Date = September 16, 1970 4:47:38 PM PDT
in Kaffe when the locale variables are unset.
Both the output formats and the actual values are different.
The later difference breaks jCVS.
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
import java.text.ParseException;
public class test
{
public static void main (String argv[])
{
SimpleDateFormat format =
new SimpleDateFormat ("EEE MMM dd HH:mm:ss yyyy");
try
{
Date date =
format.parse("Fri Sep 4 16:47:38 1998");
System.out.println ("Date = " + date);
}
catch (ParseException e)
{
System.out.println ("Parse error");
}
}
}
