Patrick Angeles updated WICKET-466:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: datetime.zip

I'm attaching an alternate implementation of DateConverter, DateLabel, 
DateField, etc... mostly based on Eelco's wicket-calendar code.

Features:
- apply timezone difference between client and server (as per original 
wicket-calendar code)
- use IModels with the following underlying types: java.util.Date, 
org.joda.time.DateTime and org.joda.time.LocalDate.
- No need for a separate StyleDateConverter and PatternDateConverter... can 
distinguish between org.joda.time.DateTImeFormat and java.text.DateFormat 
patterns.





> [datetime] Make DateConverter focus on joda-time.DateTime instead of util.Date

> I beleive the Wicket-datetime package was designed to be used with joda-time 
> DateTime objects.  It was also desirable to apply the "better" 
> parsing/toString features of DateTime to util.Date objects.  To that end, the 
> attached patch improves the focus of the Converter to be DateTime oriented, 
> while still allowing the DateTextField to hold util.Dates in it's model.
> The main idea of this patch is to make this package work with DateTime 
> objects with very little effort on the developer's part.  If they want to 
> take advantage of the improved parsing, etc then it should take minimal 
> effort.
> See http://www.nabble.com/-datetime--DateConverter-tf3233793.html for a brief 
> history of this conversation.
