I think for me then... Does Axis support a date instead of a datetime?

ANY REPLY MADE TO THIS MESSAGE WILL NOT BE COLLECTED AND INSERTED IN THE BUG DATABASE. http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21394 Possible datetime deserialization bug ------- Additional Comments From tomj@macromedia.com 2003-07-14 16:02 ------- I am a bit unclear where the bug lies here, but I will say this - Axis send date/time stamps in UTC specifically to avoid the timezone issues that are being raised. It is understood that sending it this way 'looses' the information about what timezone the time was originally in, but the information is still acurrate. Timezones are strictly for 'display' purposes only, relating a UTC time to what part of the world you live in. I would very much be against changing the serializer to emit datetime in any timezone but +0:00. The deserializer however should understand timezones and always do the right thing. Can you summarize specifically what behavior you want to change in Axis?
