Yep, I figured out this later... the solution I found is to create a subclass from Date, override the toString() method and create a custom convertion between the SQL DATE type and my CustomDate java class. I mean I had no interest on manipulating the date, i just wanted to have it in a String in order to store it in a presentation bean and show it in the "latin" way. This is the simplest reformatting I could think about. :)
