Use zoned time when parse string

[IlyaTsoi]

I suggest to use ZonedDateTime instead of LocalDateTime. So we can parse a time_string with an offset marker e.g. +03:00, -0130, Z. Also we can handle an exception when a dateTime string has invalid year e.g. in MSSQL "0000-00-01 00:00:00". Zero year value is invalid in java.

Maybe it can solve #215?

[subkanthi]

If they are both true, why is there a need to have 2 variables?

[IlyaTsoi]

When we get invalid year exception we can handle it by setting the setMinDate flag. So we don't get a date by parsing, but use the setMinDate flag to set it to minimum date. If this error occurs then we can safely assume that the date was not parsed due to zero year value

Doesn't look like a good idea to check for exception using the message(Message could change in the future), isnt there a specific exception if parsing fails?

[IlyaTsoi]

OK, i will check.

[IlyaTsoi]

I have rewritten a bit this part. It's possible to use getCause() method that inherited from Throwable to define if it's either a DateTimeParseException error or a DateTimeException. If getCause() returns null - it's a parsing error, otherwise not.

Please add to this test case like this

    @Test
    public void testZonedTimestampConverter() {

        String formattedTimestamp = DebeziumConverter.ZonedTimestampConverter.convert("2021-12-31T19:01:00Z");
        Assert.assertTrue(formattedTimestamp.equalsIgnoreCase("2021-12-31 19:01:00.000000"));

        String formattedTimestampWMicroSeconds = DebeziumConverter.ZonedTimestampConverter.convert("2038-01-19T03:14:07.999999Z");
        Assert.assertTrue(formattedTimestampWMicroSeconds.equalsIgnoreCase("2038-01-19 03:14:07.999999"));

        String formattedTimestamp3 = DebeziumConverter.ZonedTimestampConverter.convert("2038-01-19T03:14:07.99Z");
        Assert.assertTrue(formattedTimestamp3.equalsIgnoreCase("2038-01-19 03:14:07.990000"));

        String formattedTimestamp4 = DebeziumConverter.ZonedTimestampConverter.convert("0000-00-01 00:00:00");
        System.out.println(formattedTimestamp4);
    }
