Where do I register such a convertor? Simply add this code to my Action or do I have to add this somewhere else?
I've figured out what my problem was, but now sth else pops up. I have a field with type java.util.ArrayList. When I enter the form, the precedent Action fills the form. On screen, the ArrayList is correctly processed. Now, when I submit the form, all those values are gone. I added <html:hidden property="txtFieldForArrayList" /> to my JSP, but it turns out that was the problem for the previous error. When I remove that field from my JSP, everything works correctly for the first time, but the second time I enter the page, this ArrayList is gone. What am I doing wrong here? -----Original Message----- From: Niall Pemberton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: maandag 12 maart 2007 14:49 To: Struts Users Mailing List Subject: Re: DynaValidatorForm with java.util.Date On 3/12/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Why does sql.Date work? Because BeanUtils (at the moment) comes with a registered converter for jav.sql.Date - but not for java.util.Date. If you want it to handle String-->java.util.Date you need to register a Converter for it: Converter dateConverter = new MyDateConverter(); ConvertUtils.register(dateConverter, java.util.Date.class); Your date converter will need to implement the following interface: http://tinyurl.com/2h459j The section 4.3.1 you refer to below tells you which types are supported "out of the box".
