>                 Key: RF-3850
>                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/RF-3850
>             Project: RichFaces
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 3.2.1
>         Environment: Running richfaces 3.2.1GA with facelets 1.1.13 and seam 2.0.1
>            Reporter: Tim Evers
>            Assignee: Anton Belevich
>             Fix For: 3.2.2
>
>
> The following code worked under richfaces 3.2.0 but not under 3.2.1GA
> <rich:calendar id="postingDate"
> 			inputStyle="width:80px"
> 			value="#{LedgerFilterDataBean.postingDate}"
> 			datePattern="dd/MM/yyyy" 
> 			converter="GekkoDateConverter" 
>             />
> The value expression binds to a variable of type GekkoDate (our own custom date type)
> The code that fails under 3.2.1GA is
> public String getAsString(FacesContext context,
>         UIComponent component,
>         Object value)
> {
>         if (value == null) {
>             return "";
>         }
>         try {
>             return DateFormatUtils.formatDate((GekkoDate) value,
>                 getDateFormat(component));
>         } catch (ConverterException e) {
>             throw new ConverterException(MessageFactory.getMessage(context,
>                 STRING_ID, value, MessageFactory.getLabel(context, component)),
>                 e);
>         }
> }
> The reason it fails is that under 3.2.1GA sometimes the parameter (Object value) is not of type GekkoDate. It is of type java.util.date.
> Somehow in the change from 3.2.0 to 3.2.1GA the support for custom date types has been broken.
