A getter with a paramteter is not a bean property, and so won't be
accessible with the usual tags.
I'd suggest that the formatting of your date is the responsibility of your
view layer, and not the form bean. The easiest way to do waht you ar after
is to use the JSTL's <fmt: formatDate> tag:
<fmt: formatDate>
<bean:write name="theClass"
property="lastChangedDateString"/>
</fmt: formatDate>
This will automatically pick up the request locale.
