Comment 2 Brian Svihovec CLA 2011-10-03 15:54:03 EDT 
The error occurs on the following line:

diff int = date1 - date2;
Comment 3 Brian Svihovec CLA 2011-10-03 15:58:54 EDT 
This is being marked as critical because a lot of test cases will use the '-' operator for date and timestamp.
Comment 4 Paul Harmon CLA 2011-10-03 16:58:53 EDT 
This is not allowed in EDT. You will need to use the new daysDifferent() function that is defined for Date for this:

diff int = date1.daysDifferent(date2);

I am changing validation for this: changes committed to
