<div class=Section1>

<p class=MsoNormal>I&#8217;ve run into an ValueError issue when parsing an
xsd:date response with a negative UTC timezone offset. This is happening in suds
0.3.6 as well as on the trunk.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Sorry I can&#8217;t provide the WSDL, since this is
internal-only &#8211; but instead, I have some patches which fix the issue in
sxdate.py, and add two test cases to builtin.py. If these changes look
acceptable I&#8217;d appreciate it if they were integrated into some future
Suds version.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>The server uses Apache CXF 2.1.1 and JAX-B 2.1.6. The WSDL
defines a response element as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>&lt;xsd:element name=&quot;startDate&quot;
type=&quot;xsd:date&quot;/&gt;<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>The response includes the timezone offset (US Pacific time),
which happens to be negative:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>&lt;startDate&gt;2008-01-01-08:00&lt;/startDate&gt;<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>This gives a ValueError exception, similar to the following
(this is actually from the test case I implemented, not the original web
service client where I found the error):<o:p></o:p></p>
