Ok, so you're saying that Struts2 (even in trunk) is unable to handle joda-time dates out of the box? That's a pitty. In 2008, is anyone actually using pure java.util.Date anymore? Previously I've created container-objects to wrap joda-classes, which works but shouldn't be necessary. I kind of hoped that Struts-2 in its most modern form (trunk) included converters for the most common object-types. I think, for what it's worth, the ticket is missleading and that it should be commented somewhere that Struts-2.1 will not support joda-time. I know this sounds kind of rant-ish, but there are so many good things about Struts2 that missing out-of-the-box joda-support is kind of hard to swallow... -- Andreas Joseph Krogh <andr...@officenet.no> Senior Software Developer / CEO ------------------------+---------------------------------------------+ OfficeNet AS | The most difficult thing in the world is to | Karenslyst Allé 11 | know how to do a thing and to watch | PO.
