CREATION_DATE not populated in report info

I noticed while testing that Creation Date is no longer populated in the report. Is this a permanent change? When I looked at the code, I saw this is commented out with a note to fix it in the future, so it looks like there are plans to bring it back?:

epubcheck/src/main/java/com/adobe/epubcheck/ocf/OCFChecker.java

Lines 253 to 262 in d895f66

    
           // FIXME 2022 - report container info 
        
           // long l = container.getTimeEntry(OCFData.containerEntry); 
        
           // if (l > 0) 
        
           // { 
        
           // Date d = new Date(l); 
        
           // String formattedDate = new 
        
           // SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss'Z'").format(d); 
        
           // report.info(OCFData.containerEntry, FeatureEnum.CREATION_DATE, 
        
           // formattedDate); 
        
           // }

Oh absolutely yes, thanks for the report. It looks like I missed this one when refactoring the container parsing code. I'm adding it to the next maintenance release.

@rdeltour Sorry to be a nuisance, but do you have a rough date for the next maintenance release? Just asking as I need to make a decision about whether to submit a PR to upgrade to EPUBCheck 5.1.0 in JHOVE or hold it back a bit longer. If it's likely to be more than a few months away I may do the PR now and add the CREATION_DATE field back in when it's available.

@karenhanson

@karenhanson sorry for the late answer. The next maintenance release should be published at the end of this month!

fix: report the container creation date

Upgrade to latest epubcheck 5.2.1
