Geoffrey De Smet created JBRULES-3444: ----------------------------------------- Summary: Overriding the default locale for DRL date parsing should be possible: PackageBuilder.dateFormats should be settable Key: JBRULES-3444 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBRULES-3444 Project: Drools Issue Type: Enhancement Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Components: drools-core (fusion) Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet Assignee: Edson Tirelli The PackageBuilder has a field dateFormats that stores the dateformatter used to parse dates in a DRL. However it's impossible to modify that. It always parses the DRL with the default locale. So, if you write a DRL on a UK server and let it compile on TH client, it will fail because it cannot parse 1-JAN-2012. Here's the code that doesn't support changing the dateFormat: {code} public PackageBuilder( Package pkg, PackageBuilderConfiguration configuration ) { this.dateFormats = null;//(DateFormats) this.environment.get( EnvironmentName.DATE_FORMATS ); if (this.dateFormats == null) { this.dateFormats = new DateFormatsImpl(); //this.environment.set( EnvironmentName.DATE_FORMATS , this.dateFormats ); } {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
