From reading old posts I know that the converters have been improved for 1.3/2.0 but I'm doing my best to stay away from beta versions.
I have built two new ITypeConverters, a new IConverter and a new IConverterFactory and ... it kind of works. Strangely I don't see the correct format everywhere. One of my questions remain: Why does Wicket need converters at all? Java already has java.text.Format with two-way conversion between String and some other class. /Anders Johan Compagner wrote: > please look at the converters that are now in 1.3. those are much simpler > and you should be able to do what you want pretty quickly > > in 1.2.x it is also possible.
