[dna-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (DNA-96) ValueFormatException should be replaced by existing JDK IllegalArgumentException and UnsupportedOperationException in ValueFactories

Randall Hauch resolved DNA-96.
------------------------------

    Resolution: Done

Changed to rely upon a ValueFormatException for all conversions, and the IoException only on conversions that take (or might take) a Binary, InputStream, or Reader.  Also added methods to the ValueFactory that create from a DateTime and from a Binary (not sure why these were never added).

> 1) There may be a development situation where it is advantageous to know a passed-in path, segment, etc., is invalid (e.g., due to bad index value, character used, etc.) vs. a bad usage of the factory, such as trying to convert a Boolean value into a Date.
> 2) Non-ValueFactories classes that interact with the ValueFactories, such as BasicName, will need to throw IllegalArgumentException anyway when an invalid name is passed in, meaning the ValueFactories that interact with it would need to catch the IAE and re-throw as a ValueFormatException.
