Populating java.util.Date

[Mohd Amin <mo...@xymphany.com>]

Hi,
 
I have a Value Object which has date as a few of its attributes. Have
been getting a lot of errors in populating from ActionForm to the VO.
Are there any tutorials to read to solve this. Currently using a normal
ActionForm, tried with DynaActionForm first, but failed. Any tutorials
also on DynaActionForm with dates. Have got 2 books - Programming
Jakarta Struts and Professional Struts Application but both do not have
much on Date attributes.
 
Thanks
Amin

Just a few hours before you asked this question, an answer was posted on 
formating a date, very similar, see if this puts you in a good direction.

OT: I try not to use VO/DTO, instead I do a formbean has a DAO helper, 
and they copy data from DAO to formBean, I find it better architecture 
and KISS.
