I commented the lines that define the datetostring converterand the effect was that the date was displayed using toString()and the float value was displayed correctly.So, how can I define converters for different types, likeFloat and Date from and to String?.

Re: [Wicket-user] Re: Re: Re: strange behaviour of TextField conversion to Float in beta3
i dont think you can do this globally, i would override getConverter() on the textfield thats displaying dates, or craete a DateTextField subclass that does it for you.alternatively you can create a model decorator that does the conversion, advantage is that it will work for any component. -IgorOn 4/7/06, Jaime De La Jara [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I commented the lines that define the datetostring converterand the effect was that the date was displayed using toString()and the float value was displayed correctly.So, how can I define converters for different types, like Float and Date from and to String?.

Re: [Wicket-user] Re: Re: Re: strange behaviour of TextField conversion to Float in beta3
Yeah, you can do that. Like this: getApplicationSettings().setConverterFactory(new IConverterFactory() { public IConverter newConverter(final Locale locale) { final Converter converter = new Converter(locale); // String - Date DateConverter dc = new DateConverter(); dc.setDateFormat(locale, new SimpleDateFormat(dd-MM-)); converter.set(Date.class, dc); // Date - String DateToStringConverter dsc = new DateToStringConverter(); dsc.setDateFormat(locale, new SimpleDateFormat(dd-MM-)); StringConverter sc = new StringConverter(); sc.set(Date.class, dsc); converter.set(String.class, sc); return converter; } }); Notice the use of a seperate StringConverter that has a registry for type converters itself. It's kind of awkward right now. It's on our list to simplify for 1.3.

Re: [Wicket-user] Re : Re : Re: strange behaviour of TextField conversion to Float in beta3 : resolved !
I commented the lines that define the datetostring converter and the effect was that the date was displayed using toString() and the float value was displayed correctly. So, how can I define converters for different types, like Float and Date from and to String?. Like I answered you earlier: getApplicationSettings().setConverterFactory(new IConverterFactory() { public IConverter newConverter(final Locale locale) { final Converter converter = new Converter(locale); // String - Date DateConverter dc = new DateConverter(); dc.setDateFormat(locale, new SimpleDateFormat(dd-MM-)); converter.set(Date.class, dc); // Date - String DateToStringConverter dsc = new DateToStringConverter(); dsc.setDateFormat(locale, new SimpleDateFormat(dd-MM-)); StringConverter sc = new StringConverter(); sc.set(Date.class, dsc); converter.set(String.class, sc); return converter; } }); Notice the use of a seperate StringConverter that has a registry for type converters itself. In a previous post I learnt that that the conversion was a two-way process, that is from type1-type2 and from type2-type1, and that was applicable to a textfield. I'm lost here. It is. Currently Wicket doesn't know about ingoing or outgoing values though. But typically conversion is from String to T and from T to String. Different converters would be used in both cases.
