It looks like because the DateConverter code uses
DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, locale);, if you dig into this
method, it uses time style "FULL", which is documented like this: "3:30:42pm
PST". Try using that for your date. If that works, than the problem is
just that it expects a much longer version of the time.
If that's the case, just override the converter for java.util.Date (I know
you know how to do this ;) and you could put a new DateConverter, and
override this method to return whatever you want. For instance you could do
DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(foo, bar, foo, bar)
/**
* @param locale
* @return Returns the date format.
*/
public DateFormat getDateFormat(Locale locale)
{
if (locale == null)
{
locale = Locale.getDefault();
}
return DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, locale);
}
