CmsPublishScheduled fails to parse the date string depending on the workplace locale

[pStrudthoff]

CmsPublishScheduled fails to parse the date string when the workplace locale is
other then the ones with witch the data format is MM/dd/yyyy

How to reproduce:

1. Set the workplace language Japanese.
2. Create a resource
3. Choose Publish Scheduled in the right click context menu.
4. Choose a date from a calender.
5. Press OK

• then an exception will be thrown.

Here is my suggestion for fix:

The problem is that CmsPublishScheduled uses user's workplace locale to
determine which data format string to use. However, the calender widget always
returns MM/dd/yyyy formatted date, unless configured otherwise.

---

// here is the original code
DateFormat dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(DateFormat.SHORT,
DateFormat.SHORT, getLocale());
Date date = dateFormat.parse(publishScheduledDate);

---

So I used CmsCalendarWidget.getCalendarDate() like the other dialogs and
everything worked fine.

---

// here is my fix--
Date date = new Date(CmsCalendarWidget.getCalendarDate(getMessages(),
publishScheduledDate, true));

This has been fixed with release of OpenCms 9.
