You're right... I wasn't up to date (no pun intended). I think I've
figured out part of the problem. It seems that it's because the year is
2008 that DateTime::parseInt throws "Invalid non-numeric characters." If
I change the year to 2007 as shown below, no exception is thrown when I
later try to create an XMLObject. I can then cast the XMLObject to an
AuthnRequest object, but it doesn't return values that I expect. 

        
        SYSTEMTIME time;
        GetSystemTime(&time);
        ostringstream utcFormat;
        utcFormat << time.wYear << "-" << time.wMonth << "-" <<
time.wDay << "T" << time.wHour << ":" << time.wMinute << ":" <<
time.wSecond << "." << time.wMilliseconds << "Z";
        //str = XMLString::transcode(utcFormat.str().c_str());
        str = XMLString::transcode("2007-12-21T17:27:23.700Z");//added
for testing!
        issueInstant.setBuffer(str);
        XMLString::release(&str);
        request->setIssueInstant(&issueInstant);
