SimpleDateFormat Exception in Java 1.6

[ssurya-1691]

Hi Team,

Java version: 1.6
I am getting below exception when initializing APIClient.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal pattern character 'X'
at java.text.SimpleDateFormat.compile
at java.text.SimpleDateFormat.initialize
at java.text.SimpleDateFormat.
at java.text.SimpleDateFormat.

Getting exception in below line in ApiClient.java

DateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSXXX");

I really need to release DocuSign to production soon. Please help on this.

Thanks,
Surya.

@ssurya-1691 Sorry to hear that. I just pushed a fix and ensured this won't happen again.

This API client was designed mainly for Java 1.7 and 1.8, but I got it working with Java 1.6 in the past, without too much trouble. Sometimes you need to use different libs and stuff..So please let us know if you are blocked on something while integrating this client lib under Java 1.6.

After downgrading to docusign-esign-java-2.0 version able to save documents but while adding the signing object in Signer list, getting "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: java/util/Objects", This error seems like JDK 1.6 not supported for Docusign API, if we need to use Docusign API in JDK 1.6 what are the dependencies we need to include it.

was fixed in the new version 2.1.0 that went live today. it's strongly recommended to update to this version as it contains lot of bug fixes and huge amount of new features!
