Those will need NPE checks by the way.

Something you can allways do, is to define a parallel set of
getter/setter in your bean with type java.util.Date that internally
does the conversion.
public Date getStartDate() {
return start.toDate();
}
public void setStartDate(Date start) {
this.start = new DateTime( start) ;
}

Date is pretty much deprecated except for a way to carry a long

Calendar for date and time correctness if they don't want to use
Joda and
stick with the JDK classes. Calendar however is very clunky and
mutable.
Therefore, most people I know that need to internationalize or
localize use
Joda because it is correct, simple and immutable. Also, something
very
similar to the Joda date/time API is probably going to be in Java
8.0 or
something like that via JSR 310, unless it gets squashed or no one
pushes it
forward. Even still, Joda is the benchmark these days for a date/
time API.

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?
I was wondering the opposite - are enough people using Joda Time
to make
it
worth the support / time / energy in S2? Everyone I know is, in
fact,
using
java.util.Date.

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...
