Hi Matthias,

Thank you for pointing that out to update to a newer version of Trinidad, I will follow your advice.

Also, I tried to override CONVERT_BOTH_detail, but no luck yet.
I will try again after I switch to the new version.

However, the description in the messageDetailConvertBoth attribute really caught my eye:
"... if pattern is not set or is null".
To me this sounds like if the pattern is set and not null, the message customization is ignored.
Just something I felt that I should point out.

Thank you for all your help,
Magdolna

<tr:inputText label="test">
 <tr:convertDateTime
  type="both"
  messageDetailConvertBoth="Well,the value ({1}) is not really in a
propper format, like {2}"
 />
</tr:inputText>

works for me w/ latest trinidad (check the trunk)

the messageDetailConvertBoth works, only when type is both and pattern not set
(means don't provide the pattern attr)

have u tried to override

org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.convert.DateTimeConverter.CONVERT_BOTH_detail

?


regarding "convertBothMessageDetail" we changed them during october 2006
(tracked in Jira)

Hello Matthias,

Thank you so much for responding.

In the Trinidad documentation and demo source I have seen the attribute
messageDetailConvertBoth, but interestingly, it didn't seem to do anything
for me ...

However, convertBothMessageDetail (found in adf documentation) did work:
        <tr:inputText id="firstDate">
<tr:convertDateTime type="both" convertBothMessageDetail="Well,
the value ({1}) is not really in a propper format, like {2}"/>
        </tr:inputText>

The problem is, that if I add the attribute pattern (pattern="MMM-dd-yyyy
HH:mm:ss") the custom message stops working.

If you look at the trinidad api, they even specify in the description for
the attribute messageDetailConvertBoth:
"... when type is set to 'both' and pattern is not set or is null"
(http://incubator.apache.org/adffaces/trinidad-api/tagdoc/tr_convertDateTime.html)

Is there a way to have both pattern as well as customized messages?

Thank you,
Magdolna
