Hi Benedikt,
wicket-datetime implementation is much nicer, but requires the Joda Time
dependency, which the wicket-extensions version is based on normal JDK API.
When JSR310 comes out in Wicket's minimum required Java version (Java
8?) we can probably merge them.
Cheers,
Jesse

What I need is not what I want in this case.. I want to reuse wicket
components as much as possible. I don't want to reinvent the wheel.
In wicket, there are two separate, Date-specific TextField components:
- org.apache.wicket.extensions.markup.html.form.DateTextField
- org.apache.wicket.datetime.markup.html.form.DateTextField
Both use different DateConverters, to be located at:
- org.apache.wicket.util.convert.converter.DateConverter
- org.apache.wicket.datetime.DateConverter
The components in wicket-datetime are more convenient and powerful, so I'm
gonna use them. The only drawback I see is the spartanic
ConversionException, in which e.g. the dateformat information is missing.
The exception created by wicket-etensions's DateConverter holds that
information. So yes, I guess this is a break.
That also raises a much bigger question: Why is that legacy code (my guess)
in wicket-extensions still there? Why don't consolidate those two? As I see
it, same authors were working on both packages?

Hi,
We follow users@ mailing list too :-)
Since
1) DateConverter is not final
2) the related methods in it are public, non-final
3) it is possible to register custom converter for Date.class in
ConverterLocator
I think you should be able to do what you need.
Are there any breaks ?

Hi Benedikt
Should this be posted on the "Forum for Wicket Core developers" forum?
