Summary: EJB calendar timer Sunday calculation problem in certain locales
Key: AS7-5774
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5774
Project: Application Server 7
Issue Type: Bug
Components: EJB
Affects Versions: 7.1.3.Final (EAP), 7.2.0.Alpha1
Reporter: Cheng Fang
Assignee: jaikiran pai
My ejb class contains this timeout method:
{code:java}
@Schedule(dayOfWeek="Sun", persistent=false)
private void sunday(Timer t) {
}
{code}
When calling this timer.getNextTimeout(), it returned the Sunday after next Sunday
(expecting next Sunday) when running on certain locales (it_IT, es_PE, etc). It works as
expected on other locales like en_US.
I added -Duser.language=it -Duser.country=IT to JAVA_OPTS when starting standalone server
to use that locale.
Seems to be a JDK bug. There could be some differences how dates are calculated in
different locales, but shouldn't be that big like skip one Sunday. Today is Wed.
One workaround is "to use locale.English when instantiating GregorianCalendar."
I tried it on 7.2 with it_IT, and got the expected Sunday.
