Weird indeed. Do this... capture the return of your ((ConverterLocator) getConverterLocator()).set(...) call. In that method, it is returning the result of a Map.put(Timestamp.class, your-converter). Therefore, the result should be non-null, as you should be overriding the default implementation that was already put in the map.
Something like: IConverter ic = ((ConverterLocator) getConverterLocator()).set(Timestamp.class, new IConverter<Timestamp>() { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; public Timestamp convertToObject(String value, Locale locale) { if (value == null) { return null; } if (locale == null) { locale = Locale.getDefault(); } DateFormat format = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, DateFormat.SHORT); try { Date date = format.parse(value); return new Timestamp(date.getTime()); } catch (ParseException e) { throw new ConversionException("Cannot parse '" + value + "' using format " + format) .setSourceValue(value).setTargetType( Timestamp.class).setConverter(this) .setLocale(locale); } } public String convertToString(final Timestamp value, Locale locale) { if (value == null) { return null; } if (locale == null) { locale = Locale.getDefault(); } DateFormat format = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, DateFormat.SHORT); return format.format(value); } }); System.out.println("I OVERRODE THIS CONVERTER: "+ ic); Also - what version are you running? -- Jeremy Thomerson http://www.wickettraining.com On Sun, Jun 1, 2008 at 1:05 AM, Michael Mehrle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yes, exactly the way you're doing it - didn't change anything except for > removing the generic def in the IConverter interface (not using generics > yet in my current project). > > And yes, I also set my breakpoint but it's never being called.
