Andrey Rybin updated CLK-612:
-----------------------------
Description:
Current DateField.validate() is too strict.
My suggestion is:
Add String property similarDelimiters:
its format: [oldChar1][newChar1] [oldChar2][newChar2]....
if odd then ignore last char.
Modify setValue (not tested):
public void setValue(String value) {
if (value != null && value.length() > 0) {
value = value.trim();
if (similarDelimiters != null && similarDelimiters.length > 0) {
for (int i=0; i<similarDelimiters.length-1; i+=2) {
value = value.replace(similarDelimiters.charAt(i),
similarDelimiters.charAt(i+1));
}//f
}//i
try {
Date parsedDate = getDateFormat().parse(value);
// Cache date for subsequent retrievals
date = new Date(parsedDate.getTime());
} catch (ParseException pe) {
date = null;
}
} else {
date = null;
}
super.setValue(value);
}//setValue
Because many people around me use /,-,.(dot) as date delimiters, not only / for
example.
So I will set similarDelimiters to "-/\\/./" and pattern to dd/MM/yyyy - and it
will work.

And add this to validate() method (not tested):
dateFormat.setLenient(false);
String v = getValue().trim();
if (similarDelimiters != null && similarDelimiters.length > 0) {
for (int i=0; i<similarDelimiters.length-1; i+=2) {
v = v.replace(similarDelimiters.charAt(i), similarDelimiters.charAt(i+1));
}//f
}//i
try {
dateFormat.parse(v).getTime();
} catch (ParseException pe) {
