You can take a look at the source of displaytag, but here is a simple example:
The LongDateWrapper.java decorator:
package org.displaytag.sample;
import java.util.Date;
import org.apache.commons.lang.time.FastDateFormat;
import org.displaytag.decorator.ColumnDecorator;
/**
* Simple column decorator which formats a date.
* @author epesh
* @version $Revision $ ($Author $)
*/
public class LongDateWrapper implements ColumnDecorator
{
/**
* FastDateFormat used to format the date object.
*/
private FastDateFormat dateFormat = FastDateFormat.getInstance("dd/MM/yyyy");
/**
* transform the given object into a String representation. The object is supposed
to be a date.
* @param columnValue Object
* @return String
*/
public final String decorate(Object columnValue)
{
Date date = (Date) columnValue;
return this.dateFormat.format(date);
}
}
-----
And call the decorator by doing:
<display:column property="date" decorator="xxxxxx.LongDateWrapper" />
ok?
