Cool, Thanks! Now I'm excited to work with this tomorrow...I
wasn't calling
returnValue = stringConverter.convert(type, value);
Actually you know what might be a decent idea: modifying the
StringCoverter code to deal with the correct format for how you
want to convert java.util.Dates to Strings. Might provide a
default SimpleDateFormat and then also include a type of register
method that could take a String pattern for how you want to
format the Dates to Strings in order to over-ride the default.
I'll work on it tomorrow and let you know how it turns out. At
least this way you'll only have to register a DateConverter and
not another Converter to deal with Dates to Strings.
Thanks again.
