Yes, I have David,
First of all, due to the nature of the treatment I was supposed to make, I
created a custom DateConverter implementing
org.apache.commons.beanutils.Converter. That being said I just created a new
BeanUtilsBean passing as constructor parameter the ConvertUtilsBean this
way:
public static BeanUtilsBean createBeanUtils() {
ConvertUtilsBean convertUtilsBean = new ConvertUtilsBean();
convertUtilsBean.deregister(Date.class);
convertUtilsBean.register(new ProdinDateConverter(), Date.class);
return new BeanUtilsBean(convertUtilsBean);
}
My ProdinDateConverter uses DateUtils because I can receive the string
representation of a date in a zillion different formats. And of course I
created a new instance and didn't use the global one because the conversion
was supposed to happen only in a signle application tier.
Hope it helps.
