Re: SimpleDateFormat

Hi,
in attach is my complete source test case.

The output with gcj "3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3)" is:

$ snippetCalendar.exe 
Test for SimpleDateFormat
datai:29-Dec-99 11:00:09 PM

That is ok.

The output with "4.3.0 20080305 (alpha-testing) mingw-20080502" is:

$ snippetCalendar.exe 
Test for SimpleDateFormat
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError

Thanks for any help.

// how to compile and run...
// gcj --main=snippetCalendar -o snippetCalendar.exe snippetCalendar.java
// snippetCalendar.exe


import java.util.Calendar;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;



public class snippetCalendar  {
  public static void main (String args[]) {

	System.out.println("Test for SimpleDateFormat");
	Calendar datai;
	datai = Calendar.getInstance();
	datai.set(1899, 11, 30, 0, 0); // start time for delphi 
	SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat();
	System.out.println("datai:"+ sdf.format(datai.getTime()));

  }
