[fixed] GPX import timestamps ignored
Posted: Fri Oct 06, 2017 3:17 pm
Hi,
I think there's a bug when importing GPX files with timestamps. AlpineQuest (2.0.7) ignores timestamps in the format "yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ss+00:00", i.e. with the "+hh:mm" timezone specifier. This is what I get from other software. It seems it only understands the "yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm:ssZ" ones (it wants "Z" instead of "+00:00"). Other software (gpsbabel, some online tool) seem to be able to understand both formats. I've tried understanding the GPX specs, but I didn't find the definition for the timestamp formats.
I can pm you examples if you like.
