             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}
