TMXDateParser (OmegaT 6.0.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.omegat.util.TMXDateParser

```
public class TMXDateParser
extends java.lang.Object
```
Date parser for the 'basic' ISO 8601 format that is advised for TMX dates. There are many variations of the ISO8601 standard (the good thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from :( ) The TMX specification refers to the 'extended' format, but although referring to this standard, it recommends the 'basic' format: YYYYMMDDThhmmssZ. Since all translation tools conform to this format, this parser only parses this variant of the 'basic' format.
DateFormat is not thread-safe, so this class must be instantiated.
