Re: validating dates as Dates, or Strings?

[Ted Husted]

Matt Raible had an article about how to compare if two Strings match. I 
was going to see if you could use the same technique here, but it's down 
right now.

Though, you don't need to use the Struts Validator for everything. You 
can also call your own custom validations too.

ActionErrors errors = super.validation(mapping,request);

// Your validations here

return errors;

So you could also compare your dates the old fashioned way and use the 
Struts Validation for whatever else.

I have a Value Object with java.sql.Dates, and I use String's on the front
end. I do a simple conversion, but I now need to compare a starting and
ending Date.
How can I do this with the Validation?
