Class AbstractWrappedDateFormat

java.lang.Object

java.text.Format

java.text.DateFormat

com.jgoodies.common.format.AbstractWrappedDateFormat

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable

Direct Known Subclasses:

EmptyDateFormat

public abstract class AbstractWrappedDateFormat
extends DateFormat

Reduces the effort required to write custom DateFormat implementation that retain the ability to iterate through Dates with the arrow key in formatted text fields (using an appropriate DateFormatter) This class wraps a given DateFormat and delegates mos of its behavior to the delegate, except for the abstract method format(Date, StringBuffer, FieldPosition) an parse(String, ParsePosition) that can be overridden b a subclass. For example the subclass EmptyDateFormat wraps a DateForma but it parses the empty String and returns null where th predefined Java DateFormats throw an exception.
