[jira] [Commented] (WICKET-6369) Change DateTextField to use java.time.LocalDate instead of java.util.Date

["Martin Grigorov (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-6369?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16006331#comment-16006331 ] 

Martin Grigorov commented on WICKET-6369:
-----------------------------------------

There is a ticket for this already.
The problem with it is that most people want to preserve the support for j.u.Date and add j.t.LocalDate on top. And this proved to be not so simple.
The second problem is that this widget uses YUI 2.x that is not supported for a long time.

> While working with Wicket 8.0 I noticed that DateTextField uses java.util.Date. 
> I think that with Wicket 8 being created to use Java 8 features, it would be nice for DateTextField to use java.time.LocalDate.
