The fields of action forms, including DynaValidatorForms are populated from request parameters, and these values are all in String variables. I suggest using a String variable for the dyna validator form field as well, and just parsing it to get the java.util.Date equivalent when you use it in your Action classes.

And the 3rd mail. Is it possible to use an object that's different from java.lang.* as type for the dynavalidatorform? I think that's what causing the issue here. If it's not possible, then I'm in deep .... :) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: maandag 12 maart 2007 10:26 To: user@struts.apache.org Subject: RE: DynaValidatorForm with java.util.Date Ok, I did some tests and debugging and this is the result: The errormsg is "Cannot assign value of type 'java.lang.String' to property 'txtFieldName' of type 'java.util.Date'". I fill that field with following code: modifyForm.set("txtFieldName",new Date()); So the object I'm assigning to that field is a Date-object, but for some reason it is converted to a String. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: maandag 12 maart 2007 9:40 To: user@struts.apache.org Subject: DynaValidatorForm with java.util.Date Hi I have a form in which a Date is displayed, using fmt. It's static text, so no user input is required. The problem is the following. When the validation of that form fails, you return to that form. Actually, it should return to that form, but you're redirected to the error page. This is the error: 2448020 12 03 09:29 [http-8080-Processor24] ERROR org.apache.struts.util.RequestUtils - javax.servlet.ServletException: BeanUtils.populate javax.servlet.ServletException: BeanUtils.populate The form bean exists of a field, which is hidden, of the type java.util.Date. This is filled by the action, with the correct date. When I look at the source of the page, the date is actually filled in, so that's not the problem. I assume there's a problem with assigning the java.util.Date-type to a field in a DynaValidatorForm, but I'm not sure that's what causing the problem. There's also no validation on that field. Struts-config: <form-bean name="ModifyUserForm" type="org.apache.struts.validator.DynaValidatorForm"> <form-property name="txtTokenStatus" type="java.util.Date" /> </form-bean> Does anybody know how to have a Date-field in your form, in a way you can assign it to a textfield and make sure you can also pass it to fmt:formatDate.
