    The XML Schema standard specifies very precise rules about the functionality and representation of dates in XML. Those rules don’t match exactly what Javas Calendar (or GregorianCalendar) uses.

    Therefore the XMLGregorianCalendar class was introduced, which follows the rules specified by the XML spec.
