Description

the JCR value map implementation supported for a long time accessing date values either with Calendar.class or Date.class - the calendar value was converted automatically if required.

this does currently not work when writing values - for writing only Calendar objects are supported, no date objects.

the attached patch ensures that this behavior is symmetric (incl. an unit test).
