You need to specify a date format to get the date validator to work.
<bean name="dateTimeValidator"
class="org.apache.tapestry.valid.DateValidator">
<set-property name="Format"
expression="visit.currentUser.dateTimeFormat" />
</bean>
<component id="exit" type="ValidField">
<binding name="value" expression="object.exit"/>
<binding name="validator" expression="beans.dateTimeValidator"/>
<static-binding name="displayName" value="Date Exited:"/>
</component>
The Format property uses the standard java date format strings e.g.
"MM/dd/yy HH:mm:ss".
If you want every user to potentially have a different date format
it's a good idea to derive your date format from your user object, even if
it's just a stub method that returns a static. That way if you ever need to
internationalize you'll have the infrastructure in place.
You could, of course, specify a litteral, but then you're just
buying yourself some pain later on when i18n pops up.
