attempting to use time Converter?

hi...

i've created a string to time Conversion:

public Object convertValue(Map ctx, Object value, Class toType) {

		if(toType==String.class){
			return convert((Date) value);
		}
		if(toType==Date.class){
			String s=((String[])value)[0];
			return  convert(s);
		}
		return null;
	}
	protected Date convert(String v) {
		final Calendar calendar=new GregorianCalendar();
		if (v.indexOf(':')>0){
			calendar.set(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY,new Integer(v.split(":")[0]));
			calendar.set(Calendar.MINUTE,new Integer(v.split(":")[1]));
			return calendar.getTime();
		}
		return null;
	}

	protected String convert(Date value){
		final Calendar calendar=new GregorianCalendar();
		calendar.setTime( value==null ? new Date(): value);
		String s=calendar.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY)+ 
":"+calendar.get(Calendar.MINUTE);
		return s;
	}

i linked it a spefici field in the properties files of an action 
(reportHours-conversion.properties)
the problem begins when i define properties in Date type in the action, the 
convertor sends the string correctly to the Time Picker which DOESN'T 
display it, if i try typeing the same time, and move to the next field the 
values i clicked vanishes, BUT if i choose the same value from time picker's 
drop down, it's ok... should i loose the time picker completly??

Posted by Martin Gainty <mg...@hotmail.com>.
assuming your stack param is Date value this statement is causing exception
String s=((String[])value)[0];

you need to either use DateFormat.toString()
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/DateFormat.html

OR date.toString() e.g.
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/util/Date.html#toString()
