Method Detail

parse

public static XMPDateTime parse(java.lang.String iso8601String)
                         throws XMPException

Converts an ISO 8601 string to an XMPDateTime. Parse a date according to ISO 8601 and http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime:

• YYYY
• YYYY-MM
• YYYY-MM-DD
• YYYY-MM-DDThh:mmTZD
• YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD
• YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sTZD

Data fields:

• YYYY = four-digit year
• MM = two-digit month (01=January, etc.)
• DD = two-digit day of month (01 through 31)
• hh = two digits of hour (00 through 23)
• mm = two digits of minute (00 through 59)
• ss = two digits of second (00 through 59)
• s = one or more digits representing a decimal fraction of a second
• TZD = time zone designator (Z or +hh:mm or -hh:mm)

Note that ISO 8601 does not seem to allow years less than 1000 or greater than 9999. We allow any year, even negative ones. The year is formatted as "%.4d".

Note: Tolerate missing TZD, assume is UTC. Photoshop 8 writes dates like this for exif:GPSTimeStamp.
Note: Tolerate missing date portion, in case someone foolishly writes a time-only value that way.

Parameters:

iso8601String - a date string that is ISO 8601 conform.

Returns:

Returns a Calendar.

Throws:

XMPException - Is thrown when the string is non-conform.

parse

public static XMPDateTime parse(java.lang.String iso8601String,
                XMPDateTime binValue)
                         throws XMPException

Parameters:

iso8601String - a date string that is ISO 8601 conform.

binValue - an existing XMPDateTime to set with the parsed date

Returns:

Returns an XMPDateTime-object containing the ISO8601-date.

Throws:

XMPException - Is thrown when the string is non-conform.

render

public static java.lang.String render(XMPDateTime dateTime)

Converts a Calendar into an ISO 8601 string. Format a date according to ISO 8601 and http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime:

• YYYY
• YYYY-MM
• YYYY-MM-DD
• YYYY-MM-DDThh:mmTZD
• YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssTZD
• YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss.sTZD

Data fields:

• YYYY = four-digit year
• MM = two-digit month (01=January, etc.)
• DD = two-digit day of month (01 through 31)
• hh = two digits of hour (00 through 23)
• mm = two digits of minute (00 through 59)
• ss = two digits of second (00 through 59)
• s = one or more digits representing a decimal fraction of a second
• TZD = time zone designator (Z or +hh:mm or -hh:mm)

Note: ISO 8601 does not seem to allow years less than 1000 or greater than 9999. We allow any year, even negative ones. The year is formatted as "%.4d".

Note: Fix for bug 1269463 (silently fix out of range values) included in parsing. The quasi-bogus "time only" values from Photoshop CS are not supported.

Parameters:

dateTime - an XMPDateTime-object.

Returns:

Returns an ISO 8601 string.
