This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
The current version of the Beans Binding library doesn't have converters for date and time types e.g. java.util.Date java.sql.Date java.sql.Time java.sql.Timestamp These types seem too specialized to be handled directly by the binding library. The users have different requirements on the format/style of editing. So, it is fine to let the user provide his/her own converter. On the other hand it is not nice that the generated application (which uses these types) throws PropertyResolverExceptions. So, maybe we should provide some basic converters directly in the GUI builder (e.g. wrappers for DateFormat.getInstance() etc.)

The latest version of the library (included in NetBeans 6.0) no longer throws PropertyResolverExceptions. It throws ClassCastException, but the problem remains, of course.
