Entity Attribute Type using LocalDate rather than Date

mark.sluser · April 9, 2022, 5:21pm

For an entity attribute I tried to use a type of LocalDate rather that Date but I get the following error when associating it with a DateField UI component.

ClassCastException: class java.time.LocalDate cannot be cast to class java.util.Date (java.time.LocalDate and java.util.Date are in module java.base of loader 'bootstrap')

I even tried setting the ui component’s attribute datatype=“localDate” in the xml file, but I get the same result.

How can I resolve this issue?

Check the injection in the controller.
I think there is something like this:

@Autowired
private DateField<Date> statusDateField;

mark.sluser · April 11, 2022, 6:22pm

I wasn’t using the DateField in my controller class so it wasn’t declared in it.
However, I did add a declaration for the DateField as follows, but the error remains.

@Autowired
private DateField<LocalDate> BegDate1Field;

Also I tried

@Autowired
private DateField<Date> BegDate1Field;

Any other ideas ?

I have created a github issue and associated branch from my project to reproduce the issue.

Ampata issue 1
Ampata branch issue-1

With that you should be able to reproduce the issue.

Thank you,

I tried to reproduce the steps Ampata issue
And I didn’t get an error about the date field.
Did I make a mistake with the screen?

Hi,

the problem is in this code:

<column id="beg.date1" caption="Date1">
    <formatter>
        <date format="yyyy-MM-dd"/>
    </formatter>
</column>

There is no LocalDateFormatter implementation yet, thus DateFormatter instance is created and assigned to a column. I’ve create a GitHub issue.

As a workaround I can suggest add formatter programmatically, e.g.:

@Install(to = "table.[beg.date1]", subject = "formatter")
private String tableBegDate1Formatter(LocalDate date) {
    DateTimeFormatter formatter = new DateTimeFormatterBuilder()
            .appendPattern("yyyy-MM-dd")
            .toFormatter();
    return date.format(formatter);
}

As I see, you’ve changed date format for every field. It seems that it will be more efficient if you change date format globally for the app:
