[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEANUTILS-255?page=comments#action_12446722 ] Simon Kitching commented on BEANUTILS-255: ------------------------------------------
I'm not sure this is a good idea. Presumably this converter would use the "system locale" to determine how to parse the input strings. This means that 01/02/2006 will generate 01 Feb 2006 when run on a server in Europe, and 02 Jan 2006 when run on a server in the USA. That's not the kind of behaviour I would like to see a library default to. > ConvertUtilsBean does not support converts to a java.util.Date > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: BEANUTILS-255 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEANUTILS-255 > Project: Commons BeanUtils > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Henri Yandell > Fix For: 1.8.0 > > > It's impossible to convert a String to a java.util.Date (see commons-user > mail thread 'Digester and using of java.util.Date'). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
