Date format validation issue 9Warning "Value is not Valid") in RTC Eclipse Client
Steps to reproduce:
1. Download Eclipse IDE from eclipse.org 2. Download "p2 Install Repository" from jazz.net 3. Start Eclipse IDE and install RTC Client from p2 repository into the IDE 4. Create RTC Repository Connection, connect to a Project Area based on the default Formal template 5. Create a new Task Work Item 6. Set "Constraint Type" to "Start No Earlier Than" 7. Use the Picker to select a "Constraint Date" => Warning "Value is not Valid" is indicated 8. Set Task Summary and try to save the Work Item => "Save Work Item" operation fails with message: Attribute "Constraint Date" not set . 9. If date value is manually set to "May 13, 2016", the warning disappears => This indicates that the German language format setting is taken into account for display, but not for the validation of the value Environment Details: - Windows 7 (English) and Language Format set to German - Eclipse Luna SR2 or Mars.2 - RTC 6.0.1 |
One answer
Since Eclipse Luna SR2 was using below java version ( Oracle)
java.runtime.name=Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment java.runtime.version=1.8.0_71-b15 After changing java version in RTC Eclipse client P2, using default IBM supported version in eclipse.ini -vm C:\RTC-Client-Win64-6.0.1\jazz\client\eclipse\jdk\jre\bin to eclipse.ini, the validation problem disappeared. |

Dashboards and work items are no longer publicly available, so some links may be invalid. We now provide similar information through other means. Learn more here.

Thus we cannot add options like -nl or
-Dosgi.nl to eclipse.ini by default in order to set the language. The
client is deployed from a central repository
