Hi, i believe that a lot of developers use BeanUtils to copy the data from ActionForms to the specific DTOs. I've used this approach, but right now i'm facing a problem, not a big one.
I've allways been confused about working with dates in Java. I got a jsp where the user must input a date in the following format. Date: dd/mm/yyyy That's how we use dates in Brazil: the day, month and year. I'd like to make a validation if the user input the date in the correct manner in the ActionForm (i'm using traditional validation and the user input comes in a String). So, keeping in mind the variou ways of doing this date validation (even the deprecated ones), how should a do the date validation???? Which one is the best way??? I just want to check if the user input a day with 2 digits, a slash, a month with 2 digits, a slash and a year with 4 digits. Also, after that i'd like to copy this form data to my DTO with BeanUtils. Which type should i use in my DTO for this date??? Thanks, Leandro. _______________________________________________________ Yahoo!
