Coldfusion to Java date issue

where fromDate is a string? if so that's old java Date(). did you try the java
epoch offsets?

while i think the java epoch should work, you can create a dateFormat mask to
replicate that:

"ddd mmm dd 00:00:00 EDT yyyy"

i guess you might also try creating a java Date() & passing that to it:

<cfscript>
now=now().getTime();
aDate=createObject("java","java.util.Date").init(now);
</cfscript>

Paul,
Their sample code does this:

hnmReq.setDate("DateFrom", new Date(fromDate));
where the fromDate variable is set to just a date in this format: mm/dd/yy:

Their dump shows the value set to this format: [ Tue May 20 00:00:00 EDT 2008 ] for 05/20/2008

I need to get this done in coldfusion. The "LONG" format does not give the date/time in the format above and they see the java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: coldfusion.runtime.OleDateTime

error on their end.

if it can handle java epoch offset, you can try getTime()

yourDateVar.getTime()

it's not documented btw.
