[bv-dev] Proposal for supporting new Java 8 date/time types

[Marco Molteni]

Hi Gunnar,

I agree with the implementation of @Past and @Future with the possibility
to customize the TZ.

The date can be provided by an external client (e.g. via web service) and
it should be possible to validate it against the timezone of the external
client (e.g. time of payment to a local branch) or the local server TZ
(e.g. international transaction).

Personally I don't see the need to add other types to the validation, they
can be easily converted in other Java types (Month -> Integer etc.) or
require specific use cases (e.g. HijraEra).

Most of the uses cases that I see ask only the validation of a date (e.g.
@Past date for an event, @Future date today for a payment) or (less
frequently) date and time.

Cheers
