For the conversion to work with user.myDate, we need to create a properties file named User-conversion.properties and locate it in the directory where the user class resides (assuming your User class is an org.appfuse.model.User). Then inside that file, we have to put:
mydate = tutorial.MyTypeConverter This assumes of course that our "MyTypeConverter" class is in a package named "tutorial".
