Tx Matt, after reading the suggested link and a bit more about struts2 type conversion I came up with a quick "meet the requirements" solution as follows which may be improved as I became more confortable with this conversion model:
1)Altered the default Appgen generated calendar parameters on jsp entry page. Added the following javascript parameters: ifFormat: "%d/%m/%Y %H:%M", button: "refeicao.dataHoraDatePicker", showsTime:true This needs improvement but is a first working version of calendar with date and time to pick anyway. 2) Create a specific conversion class called DateTimeConverter for my action and placed under util package alongside with DateUtil, etc... this class is similar to DateConverter also in util package with few changes where I call DateUtil.getDateTimePattern() instead of DateUtil.getDatePattern() also I create a new method DateUtil.convertDateTimeToString() and used in my new converter as well. 3) Registered my converter class creating a file named RefeicaoAction-validation.xml (RefeicaoAction is the name of the action class where I need to use the converter. This pattern must be followed according to docs), in RefeicaoAction-validation.xml I registered the field I want the coverter applyied to: refeicao.dataHora=br.com.maweb.controlepeso.util.DateTimeConverter This worked just fine for inserts. Now I need to make displiay tag show the time when rendering results for this entry ass well, It´s actually a collection of objects of type Refeicao wich I need to apply the same conversion pattern. Any ideas or suggestions on this? mraible wrote: > > You should modify DateConverter or change xwork.properties to use your own > class.
