Error description
EGL library function StrLib.formatDate writes wrong date for input dates 1.1.1900 or earlier. Date is correctly formatted but is 1 day earlier. This has been observed to happen on non-US locales such as Finnish when default time zone is set to for example Finland's (in Java terms it's 'Europe/Helsinki')
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When a date is converted to a string, as happens when StrLib.formatDate is called, the result may be incorrect. It can happen when the date's year is earlier than 1902 with certain combinations of the JVM's default time zone and locale. An example is January 1 1900 in "Europe/Helsinki". When converted to a string, the result is December 31 1899.
Problem conclusion
The problem has been fixed.
