[Bug classpath/22807] GregorianCalendar.computeTime - month out of range

[gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org]

Here's the original stack traces from running Apache Axis' tests using IKVM:

See attached Test.java for stripped down test case.

Thanks,

The line causing your problem is:
 date.set(0,0,0); 

Note that the default calendar is the Gregorian one, which does not have a year
zero (1 AD was the year after 1 BC). 

The date created by the JDK by date.set(0,0,0) is Dec 31, year 2; which is
clearly a bug. 

The IllegalArgumentException is correct behavior, however the error message is
misleading. That should be fixed.

My previous comment is wrong, it seems. With leniency set, it should accept
that date. Year zero works out to be year 1 BC, and "Jan 0" works out to be Dec
31 of the year before, thus the correct result *is* Dec 31, 2 BC.

This needs fixing.
