enough to figure out how to use Conver utils.

Hi Vic, I might be missing something here but have you looked at this?

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/beanutils/api/org/apache/commons/beanutils/package-summary.html#conversion.defining

I think the step you are missing is the call to the ConvertUtils.register()
method.

Subject: beanutils: how to convert string to date



I can write something like this:
public java.sql.Date getSMaxDate() {
    String _MaxDate = "1/1/1999";
SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("mm/dd/yyyy");
java.util.Date du  = new java.util.Date();
try {
 du = df.parse(_MaxDate);
} catch (Exception e) { log.error("Date conversion error " + _MaxDate +
e);}
java.sql.Date d= new java.sql.Date(du.getTime());
return d;
}
But... is there a way to do

Converter c = new SqlDateConverter();
d = c.convert (_MaxDate, java.sql.Date.class  );
I am looking at api and can;t figure how to use beanutils to make a
string into a SQL date.
Does someone have an example?
