FITS crashes on OpenDocument Text files

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Running FITS on any ODT file results in the following error:

java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "PT6H4M0S"

(Despite this FITS does write an apparently normal output file).

Problem encountered with:

- FITS 0.5
- OS: Win XP

See attached ODT file (but this seems to happen with any ODT file)

Cheers,

Johan

I have seen this error before with certain files.  Unfortunately it's thrown 
from within the National Library of New Zealand Metadata Extractor and is 
written to either System.out System.err.  I don't think much can be done about 
it without changing the NLNZ source and recompiling the tool.

It should be ok to ignore. It will not be written to the output file if you are 
using the -o option.

Another workaround would be to add the odt extension to the exclude-exts 
attribute of Metadata Extractor in the configuration file, i.e.:

<tool class="edu.harvard.hul.ois.fits.tools.nlnz.MetadataExtractor" 
exclude-exts="dng,zip,odb,ott,odg,otg,odp,otp,ods,ots,odc,otc,odi,oti,odf,otf,od
m,oth,odt"/>

(Although in that case you won't get any metadata for ODT documents)
