Hello, Can anyone give me some 'best practice' advice for dealing with dates in an international app (Struts2).
We are based in the UK and have an application running locally that stores dates within action classes as java.util.Date. These dates are sometimes passed to the application via querystring in the format: somePage.action?startDate=20/12/2009 The action class picks up this date and stores it correctly as the 20th day of December when running locally. However, on installation to our US based server (Struts 2 / Glassfish) where of course date formats are mm/dd/yyyy, the action class makes the assumption that we are trying to refer to the 20th month of the year and so returns control to the input page with an accompanying error message. I know this is to do with localization, but I am at a loss as to the best practice for defining locales so that struts knows how to deal with this kind of scenario. The problem is passing those localized value back to the server action classes. Any advice would be gratefully received.
