Paolo - You could try creating your own component and pass a SimpleDateFormat object (custom mask) into the constructor of this custom component. In addition, when you assign this component as a constructor argument to the DatePicker it will use this mask for output. You can deconstruct the Date object back end if required back into string with same mask formatting - maybe to be part of a SQL WhereClauseGenerator etc.... I've attached an example where we use a custom DateTimeTextField for this purpose and override the getConverter method with the DateTimeConverter class (also attached). It makes use of wicket's SimpleConverterAdapter class. Hope this helps.
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Paolo Di Tommaso Sent: 15 June 2007 15:18 To: wicket-user@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Wicket-user] Convertes Hell (Wicket 1.2.x) I need to replace the default Wicket Date conversion with a custom one to override the default format for dates. To do that I've made something like that in my wicket application : getApplicationSettings().setConverterFactory( new IConverterFactory() { public IConverter newConverter(Locale locale) { return new MyConverter() ; } } ); Where: public class MyConverter extends Converter { public MyConverter() { super(); set(Date.class, new MyDateConverter()); set(String.class, new MyStringConverter() ); } public MyConverter(final Locale locale) { this(); setLocale(locale); } } public class MyDateConverter extends AbstractConverter { protected Class getTargetType() { return Date.class; } public Object convert(final Object value, Locale locale) { return parse(MY_DATE_FORMAT, value); } } public class MyStringConverter extends AbstractConverter { .... /* * ... that requires also an extra class MyDateToStringConverter .. */ } This is really too complex to do a trivial job like a Date <---> String conversion . Exists a better and simpler way to override the default date-string conversion ? Thank you, Paolo Di Tommaso This e-mail (and any attachments) may contain privileged and/or confidential information.
